Reading Notes W12: Luck Club, Part A

When I arrive at the Hsus' house, where the Joy Luck Club is meeting tonight, the first person I see is my father. "'There she is! Never on time!'" he announces. And it's true. Everybody's already here, seven family friends in their sixties and seventies. They look up and laugh at me, always tardy, a child still at thirty-six (Tan, 27).
