This second volume of A Pearl Buck Reader gathers four works selected and condensed by the editors of Reader's Digest: The Promise, Pavilion of Women, A Bridge for Passing and The Three Daughters of Madame Liang. The selection brings together fiction and personal writing, offering different perspectives on relationships, cultural change, duty and the bonds between generations. Buck's interest in the lives of women and families gives the collection a connecting thread, while the movement between intimate experience and wider social pressures shows the range of her storytelling. Presented as a single illustrated anthology, it offers an accessible introduction to several distinct works by the author.
