Sui Sin Far was the pen name of Edith Maude Eaton, an author who wrote extensively about Chinese people in North America and the Chinese American experience. Active during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, she published the majority of her work under her pseudonym, which is the Cantonese name for the narcissus flower, a popular bloom among Chinese people.
Through her focus on the lives of Chinese immigrants and their families, her writings provided a crucial perspective on the cultural and social dynamics of North American Chinese communities during her lifetime.
