The Good Earth

Pearl S. Buck

When Wang Lung goes to collect his new wife, a slave from the great House of Hwang, the gatekeeper laughs at him. However it will not be long before even the gatekeeper treats Wang Lung with respect. One day, Wang Lung himself will be master of the House of Hwang. This is the story of a poor farmer from the north of China, who lives through famine and flood, war and revolution to become the head of the greatest family in town.
