Synopsis "Mrs. Spring Fragrance: And Other Writings (Modern Library Torchbearers)"
A rediscovered classic of linked short stories set in San Francisco's Chinatown, portraying Chinese-American communities as they fall in love, encounter racism, and wrestle with their new, hyphenated identities--a century before writers like Maxine Hong Kingston, Amy Tan, and Jenny Zhang.Set in early twentieth-century Chinatown, Mrs. Spring Fragrance and Other Writings is the story of Chinese men and women living in the United States as they wrestle with prejudice and forced detention; choose to become wholly Americanized or stay true to their cultural heritage; meet both kind and predatory Americans; and as they find love, purpose, and understanding within their families. By turns ironic and heart-rending, these stories are windows into the lives of everyday people in an unforgiving, often racist city, who find solidarity and hope in the most unexpected places.
