Filled with Amy Tan's signature «idiosyncratic, sympathetic characters, haunting images, historical
complexity, significant contemporary themes, and suspenseful mystery» (Los Angeles Times), Saving Fish from Drowning seduces the reader with a façade of Buddhist illusions, magician's tricks, and light comedy, even as the absurd and picaresque spiral into a gripping morality
tale about the consequences of intentions - both good and bad - and
about the shared responsibility that individuals must accept for the actions of others.
