Dragon Seed (Buck, Pearl S. Oriental Novels of Pearl S. Buck.)
from Moyer Bell
Price: $8.40

Customer Review:

Pearl S. Buck is a master writer of the orient. As you read her novels you feel as though you are experiencing what Ms. Buck writes about. I did not want to put the book down once I began reading. But I must say that all of Ms. Buck's books have intrigued me and have held my interest. The end of her... more info

Peony (Oriental Novels of Pearl S. Buck Series) (Oriental Novels of Peal S. Buck Series)
from Moyer Bell
Price: $7.70

Customer Review:

This is about a young Chinese girl purchased as a bondmaid by a Jewish family living in exile in China around the time of the Two Empresses and the Opium War, which would put it around 1861. The book is good, well-written, and enjoyable to read. I only wish that one of the points of tension had been... more info

Mandala: A Novel of India (Buck, Pearl S. Oriental Novels of Pearl S. Buck, 10th,)
from Moyer Bell
Price: $3.72

Customer Review:

Pearl Buck's Chinese books are so well-written and some of my favorites, which lead me to try this book set in India. She does just as good a job setting the scene and drawing you into another culture. As in all fiction, there may be some elements that are not quite absoultely authentic but I found... more info

Kinfolk (Oriental Novels of Pearl S. Buck)
from Moyer Bell
Price: $5.05

Customer Review:

This could well be my favorite of Pearl Buck's books...right up there with PEONY. One thing I liked was that there was no war in it, just family relations. Oh, there was mention of communism rising, but that was incidental.

Imperial Woman (Buck, Pearl S. Oriental Novels of Pearl S. Buck, 3rd,)
from Moyer Bell
Price: $7.39

Customer Review:

This story is set as a biography of Yehonala/Yehenara/Tzu Hsi/Empress Dowager Cixi, and was overall a good read. But as a novel only, mind you.
The details of Tzu Hsi's life are largely unknown, and many people smeared her good name (like Edmund Backhouse), so this novel is meant to be just... more info

Customer Review:

Pearl S. Buck, A Bridge for Passing (Pocket, 1962)

The strength of Pearl Buck's writing, it becomes evident from page one, is in her ability to tell a story as if she were sitting next to you sipping lemonade on an unseasonably cool August day. Her observations are flowery, well-described, and... more info

Pearl S. Buck: A Cultural Biography
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $14.00

Customer Review:

I love reading biographical books since my childhood, although I don't know why. Among those books, this book and 1951 biography on Paul Ehrlich, the Father of Chemotherapy, were the most enlightening ones for me, as they changed both my life style and career. The 1951 book converted me from an... more info
