Under All Heaven

Pearl S. Buck

Pearl S. Buck spaja svoju voljenu Kinu i rodnu Ameriku u osjetljivoj drami ljudskih odnosa i sukobljenih emocija u svijetu promjenjivih stavova.

Malcolm MacNeil, američki diplomat prisiljen je napustiti Peking kada su komunisti preuzeli vlast. Vraća se kući sa svojom suprugom bijelom Ruskinjom i njihovo dvoje djece, kako bi se suočio s novim problemima. Zaštićena idiličnim brakom, Nadya se suprotstavlja neprijateljstvu i sumnjičavosti srdačnom iskrenošću dok se njezin sin i kći rođeni u Kini trude ne razlikovati od svojih prijatelja, a Malcolm nastoji uspostaviti bliži odnos između Istoka i Zapada.
