A review by russellreitsema
The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck
4.5
The Modern Rustic Book Club's November pick did not disappoint. This Nobel prize winning novel takes us into the life of a Chinese farmer who just wants to get married and work the land. He is then thrust into a tumultuous journey where he sees the best and worst of the human condition, In himself and others. He sees wealth and poverty, life and death, and the encroaching inevitability that age brings to us all. I'm excited to find the rest of the trilogy and would definitely recomend.
