A wealthy painter falls in love with an illiterate Pennsylvania farm girl in this novel from the New York Times-bestselling author of The Good Earth.
At the turn of the century, an upper-class painter from Philadelphia goes searching for inspiration. He finds his muse on a farm -- the farmer's beautiful and humble daughter. His portrait of her becomes one of his most inspired works, but his passion for the illiterate girl doesn't stop at the easel: He returns to marry her and settle down to country life -- a journey that means bridging enormous gaps between their cultures, breaking from his parents, and creating tension between their friends. Pearl S. Buck compassionately imagines both sides of the complex marriage, and in addition, creates a wonderfully vivid picture of America leading up to the Second World War. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Pearl S. Buck including rare images from the author's estate.
