This is a Sinhala-language edition of The Good Earth, the novel by the American writer Pearl S. Buck. The text is in Sinhala throughout, which international buyers should note before ordering: a reader who does not read Sinhala will not be able to use this book.
Buck's novel centres on Wang Lung, a Chinese farmer, and through his life turns a close eye on the conditions of peasant farming life across Asia. The novel was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, and Buck went on to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature.
The Sinhala version is credited to Urapola Hemaloka Thero and Hemapala Wijayawardena, and is published by M. D. Gunasena & Co., an established Colombo house publishing in Sinhala and English. It will suit Sinhala readers who want a world novel in their own language, and Sri Lankan readers abroad building a Sinhala shelf of translated fiction.
