→Pearl S. Buck and The Good Earth
::Kevin, Sorry I haven't responded before this - we've recently moved, and our house is decorated in the Early American Box motif, as well as I lost a friend way too young this past week. I'm hoping to get a chance this weekend to pick up a copy of ''The Good Earth'', and maybe one or two others written by Buck, so I can read/re-read them before trying to discuss them with you! ;-) As I said previously, it's been *ahem* a year or two since I've read anything by her, and at the time, I probably just read it to enjoy the story, without looking for any deeper meaning/intent. Thanks for being patient with me! --[[User:SharonW|SharonW]] 23:23, 28 September 2011 (EDT)

:::My apologies on my late response as well. Normally, I am completely unable to access the site because of connection problems on the server end, so I can't check my talk page or see that you have replied. I think reading ''The Good Earth'' would certainly be helpful. However, if you wish to continue our discussion, could you perhaps email me at the email address on my user page? As of now, that is the only way I can reliably continue our discussion, unfortunately. My condolences on your friend, as well. I've lost friends and family members of my own in recent years, and even though the emotional pain is never the same between people, I can certainly understand how difficult it can be. Take care, [[User:KevinDavis|Kevin Davis]] <sup>[[User talk:KevinDavis|Talk]]</sup> 14:25, 1 October 2011 (EDT)
