Pearl Comfort Sydenstricker was born on June 26, 1892, in Hillsboro, West Virginia. Her parents were Southern Presbyterian missionaries, most often stationed in China, and from childhood, Pearl spoke both English and Chinese. She returned to China shortly after graduation from Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, Virginia, in 1914, and the following year, she met a young agricultural economist named John Lossing Buck. They married in 1917, and immediately moved to Nanhsuchou in rural Anhwei province. In this impoverished community, Pearl Buck gathered the material that she would later use in The Good Earth and other stories of China.

Pearl began to publish stories and essays in the 1920s, in magazines such as The Nation, The Chinese Recorder, Asia, and The Atlantic Monthly. Her first novel, East Wind, West Wind, was published by the John Day Company in 1930. John Day's publisher, Richard Walsh, would eventually become Pearl's second husband, in 1935, after both received divorces.

In 1931, John Day published Pearl's second novel, The Good Earth. This became the bestselling book of both 1931 and 1932, won the Pulitzer Prize and the Howells Medal in 1935, and would be adapted as a major MGM film in 1937. Other novels and books of nonfiction quickly followed. In 1938, less than a decade after her first book had appeared, Pearl won the Nobel Prize in literature, the first American woman to do so. By the time of her death in 1973, Pearl had published more than seventy books: novels, collections of stories, biography and autobiography, poetry, drama, children's literature, and translations from the Chinese. She is buried at Green Hills Farm in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

Pearl S. Buck's epic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of a China that was -- now in a Contemporary Classics edition.

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. "I can only write what I know, and I know nothing but China, having always lived there," wrote Pearl Buck. In The Good Earth she 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.

Nobel Prize winner Pearl S. 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.

The Good Earth – By Pearl S. Buck 帮儿子去书店买几本书,又看到这本书放在显眼的架子上,说明还在卖。一本1931年的书,一本写1910年代中国农民的书,还在加拿大的书架上卖,这本身就说明这是一本经过时间沉淀的书。 赛珍珠,可能大家都听过的名字?关于这一点我不敢肯定...

他的名字叫王龙。他是美国作家,1938年诺贝尔文学奖获得者赛珍珠(Pearl Buck)代表作《大地》的主人公。 看赛珍珠的《大地》的过程中,我常在想,用英文写一部完全关于中国农村、农民的小说,读者是美国人,这是一种什么感觉?得保持原作自然风貌,又得顾及看官的接受能力和喜...

1933年7月3日,胡适在前往美国途中,在夏威夷有Mrs. Dillingham赠送一本Mrs. Pearl Buck的小说Good Earth(《良田》),并对胡适说“你到美国,处处必有人问你对此书的意见,你还是让我送你一本,在船上读了他”。可见这本书在美国应当是热销书。胡适对此书评价如下: 此书实...

两年前拿到书只是看了前面,最近看完了整本书,惊讶于作者对于中国农民的到位的描述,不仅是风俗习惯,还有典型农民性格,观念。阿兰真是传统的贤妻良母,王龙纳妾让我很生气但是细想这也是人性的真是写照。稍微看了一下电影,拍的还比较接近,不过阿兰不是我想象中的样子。

在Amazon上买了The Good Earth Trilogy的Kindle version,读罢第一部,对中国农民的刻板印象有有所加深。Q: When did the divide between rural and urban life start to morph?

评分

很朴实!容易读。是美国了解中国农民的一个微小微小一角。同时又足以概括普通的一生。略沉重。
