With a beautifully redesigned cover, The American Letters of a
Japanese Parlor Maid is a classic novel that captures a young
immigrant's transition to life in the United States - its
traditions, quirks, frustrations, and glorious delusions.
Accompanied by her uncle, a wealthy industrialist, Morning Glory
arrives in San Francisco via steamship. She eventually makes her
way to New York City, where she becomes interested in the lives of
the working class and decides to test the waters of the American
Dream for herself. Despite her fortunate background, she settles
for a role as a parlor maid. With her abundant wit and humorous
outlook, Morning Glory records in her letters a foreigner's view of
American life. Through her eyes we see the country in a strange new
light, perhaps more truth than fiction.
