As she grows into a lovely provocative young woman Peony falls in love with the family's only son. However tradition forbids them to wed. How she resolves her love for him and her devotion to her adoptive family unfolds in this profound tale based on true events in China over a century ago."The conflicts inherent in the Chinese and Jewish temperament are delicately and intricately traced with profound wisdom and delicate understanding in this tale. This is an enchanting story the theme of which is tolerance. Highly recommended." — Library Journal</p> Not Avail hardcover

Pearl S. Buck b.1892 - d.1973 was the daughter of American missionaries to China and an author whose 1931 novel 'The Good Earth' won the Pulitzer Prize in 1932. In 1938 Buck won the Nobel Prize in Literature "for her rich and truly epic descriptions of peasant life in China" and for her books 'The Exile: Portrait of an American Mother' and 'Fighting Angel: Portrait of a Soul' memoirs about her mother and father respectively. <br /> <br /> Buck's life was defined by her advocacy for the people of China and shifting western perceptions about that part of the world. This collection has several items pertaining to her early recognition on the heels of her Pulitzer Prize when a luncheon was held for her in New York at the Hotel Astor in 1932. There she gave her famous speech "Is There a Case for Foreign Missions" At the end the the audience appeared confused and speechless. Initially no one clapped or congratulated her and Buck later recalled after a few painful moments a storm of applause arose but by then her publisher was abruptly escorting her from the room.<br /> <br /> Inlcuded here is:<br /> <br /> 'Luncheon in Honor of Pearl S. Buck at the Hotel Astor November 2nd 1932' listing of guests and their table numbers. Pearl S. Buck is listed as Mrs. J.
