East and West (1930) is the first novel by Pearl S. Buck. In the form of a confession, it depicts the profound conflict between East and West, tradition and modernity, through her marriage to an American-trained Chinese doctor.
In her book "The Exile," Pearl S. Buck writes a poignant biography of her mother, Caroline Sydenstricker - an American who went to China as a young missionary, where she spent a life full of suffering, loss, and feelings of complete alienation.
Pearl S. Buck depicts the life of Chinese peasant Wang Lung, his rise from poverty to wealth, and the disintegration of family ties. The novel explores the relationship between man and land, tradition, social change, and moral challenges.
Babbitt (1922) is a satirical novel by Sinclair Lewis that depicts the life of George F. Babbitt, a typical American citizen – a successful real estate agent living in the conformity, materialism, and false morality of provincial American society.
The book documents a century of violence in the American labor movement — from 19th-century mining strikes to bombings and clashes with police — and exposes the brutal background to America's "class war."
Over the River and Into the Woods (1950) is a novel by the American writer Ernest Hemingway. The title is derived from the last words of American Civil War Confederate General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson.
