                                                      The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck

I absolutely love this book. When reading this book I experienced every human emotion possible which is fantastic since the author is telling the life story of a man in China.The events are so heart pulling and evoked so much emotion that I almost had a love/hate relationship with this story, but in the end I am singing high praises. The Good Earth gives a wonderful glimpse into the Chinese culture.  It is an emotional story about love, partnership, sacrifice and the understanding of where true happiness begins.
