《龙子》——赛珍珠最畅销作品之一，一问世便引起轰动。美国“第一部直接描写被占领的中国抵抗日军的”、“生动而感人的”小说。 描写江南农民林郯一家的生存遭遇，塑造了一组奋勇杀敌的英雄群像，反映旧中国农民的抗争史，讴歌中国农民的觉醒与抗日爱国的崇高精神，是一部波澜壮阔的史诗性力作。 赛珍珠在她的作品中以同情的笔触和白描的手法，塑造了一系列勤劳、朴实的中国农民形象，生动地描绘了他们的家庭生活。小说中的人物，有血有肉，富有真情实感，场景与细节的描写亦真实可信。小说越过东西方文化间的鸿沟，向西方读者展示了一个少有神秘色彩的中国，有力的改变了不少西方作家描绘的“华人异教徒”和“不可思议的东方”的形象。 目录： 总序：赛珍珠和她的中国情结 分序：赛珍珠的跨文化创作与跨文化比较 龙子

The Good Earth is a novel by Pearl S. Buck, first published in 1931, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for the Novel in 1932. It is the first book in a trilogy that includes the books Sons (1932) and A House Divided (1935). A Chinese peasant overcomes the forces of nature and the frailties of human nature to become a wealthy landowner. Book Description Pearl S. Buck's epic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of a China that was -- now in a Contemporary Classics edition. Though more than sixty years have passed since this remarkable novel won the Pulitzer Prize, it has retained its popularity and become one of the great modern classics. "I can only write what I know, and I know nothing but China, having always lived there," wrote Pearl Buck. In The Good Earth she presents a graphic view of a China when the last emperor reigned and the vast political and social upheavals of the twentieth century were but distant rumblings for the ordinary people. This moving, classic story of the honest farmer Wang Lung and his selfless wife O-lan is must reading for those who would fully appreciate the sweeping changes that have occurred in the lives of the Chinese people during this century. Nobel Prize winner Pearl S. Buck traces the whole cycle of life: its terrors, its passions, its ambitions and rewards. Her brilliant novel -- beloved by millions of readers -- is a universal tale of the destiny of man. Book Dimension Height (mm) 210 　　　　　　　　　Width (mm) 136

《母亲》内容简介：在扬子江和大运河交汇处，一座有三千年历史的城市——镇江，是锦绣江南的著名都会。六朝以来，文人墨客在此留下无数壮美篇章。从童稚到少女，从教书到成婚，赛珍珠在这里成人、成才，饱吸中华文化营养，对这座古城留下了“母亲般的记忆”，亲切地称镇江为“我的中国故乡”。在今天的镇江，能随处感受“珍珠”的气息：图书馆旁的珍珠广场，古运河上的珍珠桥，风车山上的原崇实女中，登云山上的赛珍珠故居和纪念馆…… 创作于1934年的长篇小说《母亲》，与《大地》三部曲、《异邦客》和《战斗的天使》两部传记同为赛珍珠赢得1938年诺贝尔文学奖的代表作。授奖词称“母亲在赛珍珠的中国女性形象中是最完美的，这《母亲》也是她最好的一部”。国内赛珍珠研究自进入新时期以来，其他几部作品屡受关注，唯独《母亲》中文译本由于出版年代久远，鲜有图书馆收藏，因而为读者所少见。
