The Good Earth — The West Wind

The debut novel by Pearl Buck tells the story of a Chinese woman caught at the crossroads of Eastern and Western cultures.
Gui Lan, raised in a traditional Chinese family, was taught from childhood to submit to fate, "like a flower submits to the sun and rain" and follow the customs of her ancestors.

The familiar way of life changes when the girl is married off to an unknown man, to whom she was betrothed even before her birth.

Gui Lan's husband is a doctor educated in the West, and he holds completely different views on life.
Will Gui Lan be able to accept the cultural differences between the East and the West? And open her mind and heart to new ideas for the sake of family happiness?
