I'm not sure if there are many books specifically focused on this very narrow topic, but you could look into 'Snow Flower and the Secret Fan' by Lisa See. Although it doesn't directly have a white mom in a Chinese family, it gives a great insight into Chinese family and female relationships. Maybe with some further research, you could find adaptations or similar works that do have a white mom in a Chinese family story in a fictional context.
Well, usually, there would be a focus on cultural differences. The white mom might bring Western values and ways of life, which would contrast with the traditional Chinese family values. For example, different parenting styles or views on family hierarchy.
One great book with white magic fiction is 'The Magicians' by Lev Grossman. It follows Quentin Coldwater as he discovers a hidden world of magic. The magic in it has elements of white magic, like spells for creation and protection.
The book '1000 White Women' is fictional. It weaves a tale that doesn't represent real events or people. The plot and settings are crafted for entertainment and storytelling purposes.
Such a book might focus on the family's religious practices, their values influenced by Catholicism, and how it shapes their daily lives and relationships.
'Dream of the Red Chamber' was one of the representative works of ancient Chinese literature and a classic in the history of Chinese literature. It was a novel describing the aristocratic society of the Qing Dynasty. Through the description of the lives, emotions and thoughts of Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai and other characters, it deeply reflected the various ills of the feudal society and the distortion of human nature. The novel's plot was complicated, the characters were full, and the language was beautiful. It was regarded as the pinnacle of ancient Chinese novels.
Yes, it is. 'The Devil in the White City' is classified as fiction.
There were a few ancient novels about white lotus flowers that were recommended. These novels included " Dressed as a scheming white lotus,"" Cousin Girl Doesn't Want to Climb Up the Tree,"" A scheming beauty,"" On the Altar,"" She Resigns as a White Lotus,"" Trying to Be a White Lotus Every Day,"" I'm a White Lotus in Prosperity,"" After the White Lotus Lost Her Memory," and " A White Lotus Coaxing Manual." The authors of these novels included Fresh June, Guazi He Cha, A Fuguang, Man Zhi, Jin Hua, Lin Chengxi, Su Mumu, and Jiang City Erlang. These novels might be good articles about white lotuses, but the specific content and quality needed to be further read to confirm.
There are no suitable recommendations for this kind of story as it involves improper and unethical content.
One great book is 'The Outsiders' by S. E. Hinton. It shows the lives of a group of teenagers who feel somewhat estranged from their families and society. They form their own 'family' among their group. The characters, like Ponyboy, are trying to find their place in the world while dealing with the lack of understanding from their real families.
