Review:Pearl Buck's books are all fascinating. What life is really like, mostly in farm country, in Asia. Their customs, food, family ties. I love all of her books because they take me to another time and place. Read more
Review:Frighteningly prescient, "It Can't Happen Here" follows the achievements of an ignorant blowhard who relies on platitudes and charisma to win the presidency, then lets the country fester under a reign of tyrannical fascism. The press is subverted and a military dictatorship ensues.
