Product Description

 
Despite wealth, land was the main thing. With "The good earth" the North American writer Pearl Buck obtained the Nobel Prize in 1938, because this portrait of a very poor Chinese peasant, whom by obtaining wealth becomes more depraved and full of vices, has universal characteristics and its beautiful lyricism. Besides the strength of the argument, her picturesque passages turned the novel into a classic since its publication. It is an unforgettable work and there are those who assure that they can read it again and again because something new is always found.

The Bottom Line: Unforgettable characters, unforgettable lives - your heart will be warmed, and you will get angry. Highly recommend.

The novel opens on Wang...

A Good Book: The Good Earth

Date of Review:  May 27, 2000
Review: For me, The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck is a magical book. The characters come to life as you read about them. Even though the setting is China before the People's Revolution, there is a wonderful sense of familiarity to the story. The characters...

The Bottom Line: Read this excellently written novel to get a picture of another time and place (rural China, early twentieth century.)
Review: In this novel we are presented with the entire adult life of peasant farmer Wang Lung, inhabitant of the Chinese interior at the end of the nineteenth century.

The story begins with Wang Lung s wedding day, and his collecting from the...
