Pearl S. Buck won the Pulitzer Prize in 1932. In 1938 she became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature "for her rich and truly epic descriptions of peasant life in China and for her biographical masterpieces. This is the 13th printing of her amazing autobiography that contrasts her life growing up in China with life in the United States. Kirkus Review: A memoir from the first American woman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. "Not only Buck's most important book but—on many counts—her best book" Often regarded as one of Pearl S. Buck's most significant works My Several Worlds is the memoir of a major novelist and one of the key American chroniclers of China. Buck who was born to missionary parents in 1892 spent much of the first portion of her life in China experiencing the Boxer Rebellion first hand and becoming involved with the society with an intimacy available to few outside observers. The book is not only an important reflection on that nation's modern history but also an account of her re-engagement with America and the intense activity that characterized her life there from her prolific novel-writing to her loves and friendships to her work for abandoned children and other humanitarian causes. As alive with incident as it is illuminating in its philosophy My Several Worlds is essential reading for travelers and readers alike.
