Buck 1892-1973. Buck is best known for her novel The Good Earth a historical fiction novel about Chinese village life in Anhwei Province. It was the best-selling novel in the United States in 1931 and 1932 and Buck was awarded the 1932 Pulitzer Prize for her work. Pearl Buck was born in the U.S. and raised in China by her Presbyterian missionary parents. Her parents taught her that the Chinese people were their equals and raised her in a bilingual environment; she was tutored in English classical Chinese and the local dialect of the provinces they lived in. In her lifetime Buck wrote 43 novels as well as numerous non-fiction books biographies autobiographies and short stories; much of her work focused on Chinese people and was set in China; contemporary reviewers say that she humanized and demythologized China and the Chinese people in the American mind. Pearl Buck was the first American woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature awarded in 1938 "for her rich and truly epic depictions of peasant life in China" and for her "masterpieces" two memoir-style biographies of her parents. <br /> <br /> Other articles in this magazine include an opinion piece in support of atomic bomb tests at Bikini Atoll; a profile of a photographer in the Philadelphia Orchestra; and several more short stories.
