SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
While the story is about a Chinese farmer, Pearl Buck is truly writing about a universal farmer, one who knows that his riches and security come from the good earth itself. She provides an insight into life in China and one of the first novels to reflect an ecological spirit.
