A novel as rich, dramatic, and surpris-
ing as the city it celebrates-Los An-
geles, the City of the Angels, the tiny
desert pueblo that grew to epitomize
the twentieth-century city and to feed
the world its dreams.
Ranging from the 1880s to World
War II, Lotus Land draws its charac-
ters from the three ethnic groups-
Oriental, Hispanic, and Anglo-whose
ambitions fueled the rise of Los An-
geles: SUNG WING ON, a refugee from
plague and famine, whose life seemed
dedicated to preserving the culture
that had spurned him; MAGDALENA
ORTIZ, a vibrantbeauty ostracized
from her Mexican village, for whom
Los Angeles seemed a birthright to be
won by iron-willed determination and
seduction; and CLIFFORD CRREIGHTON,
who turned his back on genteel Baltimore
