Still porting
I first fell in love with this story when I saw the movie when I was much, much younger. I indentified so strongly with Olan. (I don’t know what that says about me.) When Oprah picked this for her book club, I thought, I must read it. (I am not a big book club follower – I read either too quickly or two slowly)
And I am very glad I did. The story of Wang Lung has some very moralistic overtones, if you leave the land, bad things happen, but the true heroine of the piece is Olan. It is her struggles and matter of fact practicality about life that allow Wang Lung to succeed. It is only after Olan has gone, that he realizes exactly what she was, yet even then, he can not bring himself to love her.
It’s a truly brilliant book and everyone should read it.
