Pearl S. Buck ha sabido describir en sus libros el punto justo en que se encuentran las civilizaciones oriental y occidental. Al trazarnos el retrato de una familia distinguida, nos muestra los conflictos que, de manera inevitable, surgen entre padres e hijos cuando las ideas occidentales penetran en los baluartes de la cultura china.

La joven Kwei-lan, hija de un rico patriarca chino, acaba de contraer matrimonio. Su marido, cuya exquisita educación ancestral se ha desvanecido por influencia de la cultura occidental, rechaza inicialmente a la esposa. Nuevas costumbres y usos, algunos en contradicción con aquellas convicciones en las que fue educada, deberá aceptar la esposa paulatinamente si desea conseguir el amor de su marido y comprender las díficiles situaciones familiares que provoca el contacto entre las culturas de Oriente y Occidente.
