Confessions Of Madame Psyche by Dorothy Bryant
Memoirs and Confessions of Madame Psyche
Set in early 20th-century California, the story follows the life of Mei-li Murrow, a young girl of mixed Chinese and Caucasian heritage who is mistakenly believed to have psychic abilities. As she navigates through various phases of her life, from a childhood marked by cultural conflicts to an adulthood filled with personal and societal challenges, Mei-li grapples with her identity and the expectations placed upon her. The narrative explores themes of race, gender, and the search for self-understanding, all while painting a vivid picture of the historical and social landscape of the time.
