Pearl S. Buck

Más información sobre el libro

Pearl Buck's life as a cultural ambassador is explored through her experiences as a missionary's daughter in China, where she became bilingual and engaged deeply with both American and Chinese societies. Known for her literary achievements, including The Good Earth, she was also a fervent advocate for social justice, civil rights, and women's rights, founding the first international adoption agency. Peter Conn's richly illustrated biography not only highlights Buck's contributions but also contextualizes her within the broader historical landscape of the 19th and 20th centuries.
