The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck

The moving story of the honest farmer Wang Lung and his selfless wife O-lan, in which the author 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 ordinary people. It is a universal tale about the destiny of man.
