As per her sisters, what was their father's actual descent?

  • French-Canadian

  • English

  • Spanish-Mexican

  • Russian

Answer

In the novel "The Joy Luck Club", An-Mei Hsu describes her father as being of Spanish-Mexican descent. However, her sisters claim that he was actually Chinese. This discrepancy is likely due to the fact that An-Mei's father was born in Mexico, where there is a large Chinese population. As a result, he may have been seen as being more Mexican than Chinese by his daughters.
