          Saving Fish from Drowning is a novel written by Amy Tan.

          It is her fifth work. The book is about 12 American tourists who travel to China and Burma.[1]

          The novel received an honorable mention from the Asian/Pacific American Awards for Literature.[2]

          Tan says in her "Note to the Reader" that she drew inspiration for her work from a collection of "automatic writing messages from the unseen world".

          However, in an interview, she recants this explanation and claims that she actually made up the story of Bibi Chen, the protagonist whose story was supposedly passed along through automatic writing.[3]
