The second installment in Pearl S. Buck’s acclaimed Good Earth trilogy: the powerful story of three brothers whose greed will bring their family to the brink of ruin

Sons begins where The Good Earth ended: revolution is sweeping through China. Wang Lung is on his deathbed in the house of his fathers, and his three sons stand ready to inherit his hard-won estate. One son has taken the family’s wealth for granted and become a landlord; another is a thriving merchant and moneylender; and the youngest, an ambitious general, is destined to be a leader in the country. Through all his life’s changes, Wang did not anticipate that each son would hunger to sell his beloved land for maximum profit.

At once a tribute to early Chinese fiction, a saga of family dissension, and a depiction of the clashes between old and new, Sons is a vivid and compelling masterwork of fiction.

Eleştirmen yorumları

“[With Sons] Buck has enriched her wide canvas.”

(New York Times)

“[Buck] did for the working people of twentieth-century China something of what Dickens had done for London’s nineteenth-century poor.”

(Hilary Spurling, author of Pearl Buck in China)

This writer was recommended to me by a friend and I am hooked.
As I was brought up in the Far East by my Western parents it takes me back to another culture and a totally different mindset. It is beautifully written with a sparse style with the feeling of King James’ English.
Beautiful.

Strangely convincing tale of three brothers and their extended families. Each of the three sons has a very different temperament which leads them to react differently to their inheritance, on the event of their father’s death.
