Pearl Buck’s first published novel was East Wind: West Wind (1930), a story concerned with contrasts between Asian and Western civilizations. It was soon followed by The Good Earth (1931), a tale of the desperate struggle of a poverty-stricken peasant farmer, Wang Lung, to acquire land.

The first effective portrayal of rural Chinese life in American fiction, The Good Earth became a best-seller and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in fiction in 1932. The book was dramatized, filmed, and translated into more than 20 languages. With its two sequels, Sons (1932) and A House Divided (1935), it was published in one volume entitled House of Earth (1935). With these works Buck strove to create a better understanding of China.
