What about Tan's piece makes it a compelling autobiography?
Amy Tan's piece is a compelling autobiography because it is relatable to readers who feel like they have failed their parents in one way or another. It is also relatable to people who want to be their own person, and do not want to be someone they are not. The little girl in the autobiography took a very stubborn and smart approach to show her mom that she was not interested in becoming a prodigy, even if it disappointed her mother. It was interesting that the family from china thought you could be anything you wanted in America, if you had some sort of talent, but in reality i don't think thats how it is at all. To be famous in my opinion, one has to have a connection to the business or you just get lucky.
