the mom

In a wonderful translation by translator Mahmoud Masoud, we get the unique and charming novel "e;Mother"e; by the famous novelist and Nobel Prize winner for Literature, Pearl Buck. What happens when a young peasant mother who neither reads nor writes finds herself abandoned with her three children and mother-in-law in their small country cottage and the deserter is her beloved husband? What should she do when there is no one for her in the world, as if she was stranded? How will she spend her life after her husband left and she no longer has a responsibility that would burden her with mountains? And she has her youthful longings bubbling in her body every day? Questions that will have an expected answer for every reader, but the answer for novelist Pearl Buck is unexpected and surprising to everyone. The mother's life journey in this novel is the life journey of an entire class before it is the life journey of a woman. A journey filled with fun, interesting and painful details at the same time, and this combination is what Pearl Buck excelled at most. You will laugh and cry as you read this novel, dear reader. You will acknowledge the writer's genius as you see yourself classifying the novel, chapter after chapter, and each chapter takes the novel out of your first classification of it and enters it into another classification. Tragic, philosophical, or political? It is all of the above.
