Publisher's Synopsis
The Hieroglyphics Of Love: Stories Of Sonoratown And Old Mexico (1906) is a collection of short stories written by Amanda Mathews. The book is set in the early 1900s and explores the lives of Mexican Americans living in Sonoratown, a neighborhood in Los Angeles, and in Old Mexico. The stories are written in a romantic and poetic style, and focus on themes of love, family, and cultural identity. Each story is filled with vivid descriptions of the characters and their surroundings, and Mathews uses her writing to paint a picture of life in these communities. The book is a fascinating glimpse into a time and place that is often overlooked in American literature, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of Mexican Americans in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
