Consider other books by Maxine Hong Kingston, such as Hawai’i One Summer, Veterans of War, Veterans of Peace, and the Fifth Book of Peace. Especially consider China Men, which serves a sequel of sorts to The Woman Warrior and explores the men in Kingston’s family.
Other novels by prominent female Asian American writers—for example, Amy Tan’s The Kitchen God’s Wife (1991) or Celeste Ng’s Everything I Never Told You—could invite interesting comparisons and provide context for The Woman Warrior in the broader genre of Asian American Literature.
Consider other memoirs that explore authors’ childhoods, such as Jeanette Walls’ The Glass Castle.
