This Proud Heart by Pearl Buck Book Review
The review praises Pearl Buck of This Proud Heart as a direct forceful tale of Susan Gaylord a woman who masters many arts from design to sculpture. It traces her life from marriage to motherhood to Paris and shows how her work and self faith conflict with husband Mark and later Blake. The piece commends Buck for a vivid portrait of a strong self assured woman in ordinary settings.
