Includes List of Other Books by Amy Tan; Preliminary Page Quotes by Albert Camus and Anonymous; A Note to the Reader; Acknowledgments and Dedication.

Signed by the author, Amy Tan, with thin blue ink on a Palm Beach Literary Society bookplate which is neatly affixed to the center of the inner front board. "Twelve American tourists join an art expedition that begins in the Himalayan foothills of China -- dubbed the true Shangri-La -- and heads south into the jungles of Burma. But after the mysterious death of their tour leader, the carefully laid plans fall apart, and disharmony breaks out among the pleasure-seekers as they come to discover that the Burma Road is paved with less-than-honorable intentions, questionable food, and tribal curses. And then, on Christmas morning, eleven of the travelers boat across a misty lake for a sunrise cruise -- and disappear. Drawing from the current political reality in Burma and woven with pure confabulation, Amy Tan's picaresque novel poses the question: How can we discern what is real and what is fiction, in everything we see? How do we know what to believe? Saving Fish from Drowning finds sly truth in the absurd: a reality TV show called Darwin's Fittest, a repressive regime known as SLORC, two cheroot-smoking twin children hailed as divinities, and a raging tribe hiding in the jungle -- where the spirits of disaster known as Nats lurk, as do the specters of the fabled Younger White Brother and a British illusionist who was not who he was worshipped to be. With her signature "idiosyncratic, sympathetic characters, haunting images, historical complexity, significant contemporary themes, and suspenseful mystery" (Los Angeles Times), Amy Tan spins a provocative and mesmerizing tale about the mind and the heart of the individual, the actions we choose, the moral questions we might ask ourselves, and above all, the deeply personal answers we seek when happy endings are seemingly impossible." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "Saving Fish from Drowning is a profoundly wise and yet often laugh-out-loud-funny book about the relationship between the individual heart and the universal soul. This is a can't-p[ut-down read that offers heartache and humor, hope and healing. Amy Tan has long been one of the great literary treasures of our culture, and Saving Fish from Drowing is perhaps her finest book." - Robert Olen Butler.
