Mei-li Murrow, the illegitimate daughter of a Chinese prostitute and a white confidence man, is recreated as the medium "Madame Psyche" after she accidentally predicts the San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Although she wins fame and fortune as a medium, Mei-li seeks a truer spirituality, and embarks on a pilgrimage that takes her to the death-soaked Europe of the First World War, to a utopian commune in the Santa Cruz Mountains in the 1920s, to Depression-era migrant work camps and cannery strikes, and finally to the Napa State Hospital, where she finds wisdom and peace among the outcasts of the asylum.

The Kin of Ata Are Waiting for You is part love story, part science fiction, at once Jungian myth and utopian allegory."Truly unforgettable!"-San Francisco ChronicleThe kin of Ata live only for the dream.

Into the world of Ata comes a desperate man, who is first subdued and then led on the spiritual journey that, sooner or later, all of us must make."A masterful novel . . . a beautiful, symbolic journey of the soul, the journey of a serious dreamer."-Berkely Monthly
