China: Perspectives of a Transplanted Mango
Su Dai
The author calls herself a mango, yellow on the outside and yellow on the inside. She is Chinese, a descendent of generations of Chinese ancestry. Like a mango, she is the fruit of a strong family tree, nurtured from roots that are anchored deeply in rich Chinese soil. She has been living in the United States for five years. After being bathed in the East Coast sunshine and absorbing the nutrition of the American soil she has observed and analyzed the culture with a dual perspective of both the inside and the outside. She is a transplanted mango. The author reflected on personal stories that demonstrated the cultural conflicts she experienced as she learned to adapt to life as a transplanted mango. The essence of this book is to create a better understanding of the humanities that come into play when a member of one culture is cross pollinated into another. This is a book of details on Sino-American cultural conflicts, instead of concepts.
