The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck

5.0

Highly recommend. This is my third or fourth re-read of The Good Earth, and this time I'm listening to the audiobook. Writing in detail about the plot of this book, I believe, would be considered spoilers, so I will simply say that the evocative narrative spun by Pearl S. Buck is timeless, and as relevant today as it was when it was written nearly 100 years ago (1930). That is to say, human nature does not fundamentally change over the centuries. Please consider reading this lovely book.

Wow, I completely forgot the gut punch of the last sentence of the book. Damn.

Read-What-I-Own Challenge book #3 of 20.
