Amy Tans writing style
Amy Tan's writing style is about the Chinese-American culture integrated with life stories. She gives the reader an opportunity to gain knowledge about the way of life her family, friends, and even herself have had. Tan's main purpose of writing is to educate people about growing up as a minority. In her stories, "Tan is handing us the key with no price tag and letting us open the brass-bolted door." (Gillespie.365). The focus of "Rules of the Game" was on the culture of the Chinese-Americans but it was weaved into a story to catch the reader's attention. She introduces the readers to the way of like of the Chinese-Americans, "it's like being invited into a dusty room full of castoffs, and being given a chance to re-apprehend them in their former richness" (Gillespie.365). Tan wrote about her experiences, her relative's experiences, and fellow Chinese-Americans living in America. In the story "Rules of the Game" Tan included experiences she had known from her life. In all of Tan's stories and novels "Tan wrote about what she had seen herself and what she hadn't- her own experience and her mother's" (Fitzgerald.367) including in the short story "Rules of the Game".

The story "Rules of the Game" has "skepticism, same themes and linear structure that allows puzzles to be unraveled and truths to unfurl along the way, and splendidly cinematic scenes" (Gillespie. Because of Waverly's persistence in the story, her brothers eventually let her play, and again and again Waverly would defeat them. In "Rules of the Game", when the boys first got the chess game, Waverly's mother wanted them to throw it away but the boys did not because they did not understand why their mother felt that way. Tan's stories give a "lucidity of vision" (Chang. 363), so you are able to imagine exactly what is going on. Tan's stories are very effective in introducing readers to knowledge of a Chinese-American culture and lifestyle. Waverly's mother was very shocked at how well she did, so she decided to enter her into competitions.
