Jade Peony

... Wayson Choy, in his novel The Jade Peony explores issues of culture through the eyes of four siblings. ... He also uses cultural objects like jade to represent the belief in tradition within the family, “the precious jade peony, a carved stone the size of a large coin, knotted with red silk to hang like a pendent from the center, like the clapper of a sacred-bell. ... This was symbolized by the handing down of the Jade Peony from Poh-Poh to him, “Caught between my fingers, was the small, round firmness of the jade peony. ... “(Page 151) Poh-Poh gave him the Jade Peony in private which also symbolizes how he must keep the knowledge of old traditions a secret to avoid ridicule from others including his family members.
