PEARL S. BUCK - Exile
The Exile: Portrait of an American Mother is Pearl S. She would spend the rest of her life there, enduring a harsh, isolated existence in the poor, hostile interior of China. Buck's intensely moving memoir of her mother, Caroline (Carrie) Stulting Sydenstricker, who set off to China as the bride of a zealous Presbyterian missionary in 1880.
Carrie's husband was often far away preaching, and, even when at home, he was a distant figure whose singular focus on "the Work" brought hardship to the family. She struggled to keep her family safe and healthy, her first three children dying young and the fourth, Pearl, narrowly escaping the same fate. With courage and determination, Carrie persisted, successfully raising the family and administering to the Chinese in practical, informal ways.Buck wrote a draft of The Exile immediately after her mother's death in 1921,
