Meet Elaine Lui's mother. She's "a movie, an Amy Tan novel, and a sitcom all rolled into one."* Or as her daughter sums it up: "She's Chinese, she squawks like a chicken, she is totally nuts, and I am totally dependent on her."
With tales of brutal mah-jong competitions, all-cap texts ("YOUR BAD SKIN NEED SOUP"); public shaming, and pearls of occasionally-bizarre wisdom; Lui not only paints a portrait of a challenging, frustrating, fascinating woman that will make you laugh and cry--she eloquently describes exactly what it's like to love someone who drives you crazy.
"A remarkable memoir about Lui's relationship with her Hong Kong-born mom, who makes Tiger Mothers look like pussycats."--Tampa Bay Times
