Pearl Sydenstricher Buck, née à Hillsboro (Virginie-Occidentale) le 26 juin1892, et décédée le 6 mars 1973 à Danby (Vermont), est une femme de lettres américaine. En 1930 paraît son premier roman inspiré par la Chine qui ouvre un grand cycle romanesque: Vent d'Est, Vent d'Ouest. En 1931, La Terre chinoise, inspiré par son séjour à Suzhou, connaît un immense succès (égal à celui de Quo Vadis). Elle est la première femme à obtenir le Prix Pulitzer en 1932 pour La Terre chinoise. Cet ouvrage, adapté avec grand succès au cinéma (Visages d'Orient), est prolongé par Les Fils de Wang Lung (1932) et La Famille dispersée (1935). La production littéraire de Pearl Buck est foisonnante et comprend des romans, des nouvelles, des pièces de théâtre, des essais, des recueils de poèmes et même un livre de cuisine. La plupart évoque le pays de son enfance et s'inspire de l'art populaire chinois. Ses œuvres, écrites dans un style simple et concis, communiquent au public occidental son amour pour la Chine et pour ses habitants. Leur succès est certainement pour beaucoup dans l'attrait en Occident pour cette région du monde. En Chine où la popularité de l'auteur ne s'est jamais démentie, elle est considérée, sans ironie, comme un vrai auteur chinois. Dans Un cœur fier (1938), elle pose le problème de la femme artiste et expose le conflit d'une femme entre son œuvre de sculpteur et sa vie d'épouse et de mère. Pearl Buck reçoit le Prix Nobel de littérature en 1938 pour «ses descriptions riches et épiques de la vie des paysans en Chine et pour ses chefs-d'œuvre biographiques».
