"The Good Earth" I thought that was a good book.

I did too when I read it in junior high, but now I wonder what I would think of it, because as an adult I read one of her books that was an argument for abortion.

I'm sorry I sounded so condescending. It's late and my mind is dull -- I didn't mean to give off airs. I just meant to say that I also thought "The Good Earth" was good, but now I'm suspicious of it.

I'm wondering if Pearl S. Buck can write a later book whose main theme is pro-abortion, and not have had any of her culture of death thinking seep into "A Good Earth". I don't know.
