Flora’s Interpreter: And Fortuna Flora is a book written by Sarah Josepha Buell Hale and first published in 1856. The book is a collection of two stories, both of which revolve around the theme of flowers and their meanings. The first story, Flora’s Interpreter, is about a young girl named Flora who is fascinated by flowers and their symbolic meanings. She dreams of being able to communicate with flowers and understand their language. One day, she meets an old woman who teaches her how to interpret the language of flowers. Flora then uses this knowledge to help her friends and family understand the messages that flowers are sending them.The second story, Fortuna Flora, is about a wealthy woman named Mrs. Fortuna who is obsessed with flowers and their meanings. She spends a fortune on rare and exotic flowers and employs a team of experts to help her understand their symbolism. However, despite her wealth and knowledge, Mrs. Fortuna is unhappy and unfulfilled. It is only when she meets a young girl who has a natural understanding of flowers that she realizes the true value of her obsession.Overall, Flora’s Interpreter: And Fortuna Flora is a charming and uplifting book that celebrates the beauty and meaning of flowers. It is a testament to the power of nature and the importance of understanding and appreciating the world around us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
