One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent
almost half of her long life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States.
In her lifetime she earned this country's most highly acclaimed literary award: the
Pulitzer Prize, and also the most prestigious form of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel
Prize for Literature. Pearl S. Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime
because of her prolific literary output, which consisted of some eighty - five published works,
including several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and
more than a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty - five
volumes were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which
she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of
the East and the West. As the product of those two cultures she became as the described
herself, "mentally bifocal." Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and
versatile human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that
we are in fact meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous
writer and a humanitarian and philanthropist. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without
learning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell
Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer prizes.
Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author. is a captivating subject of study.
