Summary
"Though nearly ninety years have passed since this remarkable novel won the Pulitzer Prize, it has stood the test of time and become one of the great modern classics. In The Good Earth Pearl S. Buck paints an indelible portrait of China in the 1920s, when the last emperor reigned and the vast political and social upheavals of the twentieth century were but distant rumblings. This moving, classic story of the honest farmer Wang Lung and his selfless wife O-lan is essential reading for those who would fully appreciate the sweeping changes that have occurred in the lives of Chinese people during the past century." -- Back cover
