«Viento del este, viento del oeste» is the novel by Pearl S. Buck, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (223 pages, in Spanish).
Set in China at the beginning of the twentieth century, the novel follows a young woman educated in her family's traditions, whose world is shaken as Western ideas make their way into her surroundings. Pearl S. Buck thus addresses the clash between generations, marriage, family, and the search for one's own identity.
Spanish translation of Pearl S. Buck's first novel, East Wind: West Wind (1930), published in 1992.
For readers of classic fiction interested in the clash between cultures and in the work of Pearl S. Buck, Nobel Prize in Literature.
Pearl Comfort Sydenstricker Buck was an American writer and humanitarian. She is best known for The Good Earth, the best-selling novel in the United States in 1931 and 1932, which won her the Pulitzer Prize in 1932. In 1938, Buck became the first American woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature "for her rich and truly epic descriptions of peasant life in China" and for her "masterpieces", two memoir-biographies of her missionary parents.
