"Once you are born Chinese, you cannot help but feel and think Chinese" whether this is true or not is discussed in "A Pair of Tickets", by Amy Tan. This is a brief narrative about the conscience and reminiscence of a young Chinese American woman, Jing-Mei, who is on a trip to China to meet her two half-sisters for the first time in her life. Amy Tan is an author who uses the theme of Chinese-American life, converging primarily on mother-daughter relationships, where the mother is an emigrant from China and the daughter is fully Americanized --yellow on the surface and white underneath. In this story, the mother tries to communicate their rich Chinese history and legacy to her daughter, but she is completely ignorant of their heritage.
