Though more than sixty years have passed since this remarkable novel won the Pulitzer Prize, it has retained its popularity and become one of the great modern classics.
In 'The Good Earth', Pearl Buck presents a graphic view of a China when the last emperor reigned and the vast political and social upheavals of the twentieth century were but distant rumblings for the ordinary people. This moving, classic story of the honest farmer Wang Lung and his selfless wife O-lan is must reading for those who would fully appreciate the sweeping changes that have occurred in the lives of the Chinese people during this century. Buck traces the whole cycle of life: its terrors, its passions, its ambitions and rewards. Her brilliant novel - beloved by millions of readers - is a universal tale of the destiny of man.
