As is often the case in classic works, the front matter of this book contains a lengthy quotation. When this happens on audio, there may be a few minutes of confusion when one wonders if the correct CD was placed in the player. But with the first chapter, a wonderful rendition of a time-honored story begins. Anthony Heald captures Bucks commentary on the human condition with a humble tone that matches the poignant life of Wang Lung and his wife, Olan, as they eke out a living in rural China. Healds performance pays homage to the novels historical integrity in its detailed account of the Boxer Rebellion and its aftermath. This is an outstanding production of Bucks most famous work.

Pearl S. Buck is one of my favorite authors. And since I absolutely love well written books, I virtually devoured THE GOOD EARTH. I read this classic book when I was fourteen and have re-read six times since then. The character development was great and the story kept my interest until the last page. The pacing of the story was expertly done, and the writing style was just marvelous. With a rich plot and fantastic setting, the author successfully captured the remarkable element of human relationships, tapping into the varying human emotions that made the story so real. The more you reread the book the more your perception deepens, and the more you get to enjoy it. The setting enabled me to learn a great deal about China, the Chinese people and their traditions and customs and finally the lot that we all share as humans with cardinal virtues. That human touch is best portrayed by Wang Lung and O-lan his wife, the heroes of the book who defy the negative aspects of life and survive from the sweat of their brow and the produce of the good earth.
I recommend this book along with DISCIPLES OF FORTUNE, THE USURPER AND OTHERS, THE UNION MOUJIK

Very readable book. Strong moral story. Particularly interesting because it describes an era in China, (just as Mao was coming to power)which has very few other witnesses because the cultural revolution forced many Chinese authors to destroy their literary works. Great for a discussion group.
Listmania!
