Hi-You is a novel written by Robert Elliott and first published in 1906. The story follows the journey of a young man named Hi-You, who is half Chinese and half American, as he tries to navigate the complexities of his dual identity. Hi-You grows up in San Francisco's Chinatown, where he is raised by his Chinese mother and her family. However, he is also exposed to American culture through his father, who is a successful businessman.As Hi-You grows older, he struggles to reconcile his two identities and find his place in the world. He faces discrimination and prejudice from both Chinese and American communities, but also finds love and friendship along the way. The novel explores themes of identity, race, and cultural assimilation in early 20th century America.Overall, Hi-You is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the immigrant experience in America. It is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of cultural identity and the challenges faced by those who straddle multiple worlds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
