| It was while living in Nanking that Pearl Buck completed her first novel East wind: West wind, which was published in 1930. Her life and her writing blended the East and the West, and she always managed to see both sides of an issue. She was able to write with complete truth and candor. Although considered a novel, East wind: West wind consists of two long stories. East Wind: West Wind, which became immediate popular with the reading public, focuses on a young Chinese married couple who are caught in the conflict between traditional customs and the new, fashionable Western beliefs. The appearance of Pavilion of Women (1946) once again proved Pearl Buck¿s popularity. Madame Wu, the leading character, and Brother Andre, the totally unselfish, dedicated scholar, combine to create what is probably Pearl Buck¿s strongest statement of benevolence and humanitarianism within the pages of a novel. In several respects Madame Wu is a fictional counterpart of her originator. Brilliant, energetic, and a capable manager, she is converted to kindliness, generosity, and a loving awareness through Andre¿s philosophy and example. The book insists that biblical values can solve any problem. |
