In "The Invisible Red String" by Quen Law, two characters exemplify different perspectives on the importance of education and careers for women: Mei, who values academic achievement and aspires to a successful career, and her traditional grandmother, who believes that a woman's primary role is to marry and care for her family. This conflict between Mei's ambitions and her grandmother's conservative views creates tension, driving the plot as Mei grapples with her desire for autonomy versus familial expectations. Ultimately, this divergence highlights the evolving roles of women in society and prompts Mei to forge her own identity, influencing her choices and relationships throughout the story.
