The Good Earth won the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize. Travel to 1920s China, a time when the last emperor still ruled and the sweeping changes of the twentieth century were distant rumblings, with this timeless, evocative classic tale of the honest farmer Wang Lung and his family as they struggle to survive in the midst of vast political and social upheavals. Pearl S. Buck traces the whole cycle of life: its terrors, its passions, its ambitions, and rewards. This brilliant novel is a universal tale of an ordinary family caught in the tide of history.
