On this day in 1938, American writer Pearl S. Buck received the Nobel Prize in literature for "The Good Earth", a novel about the life of a farming family in a Chinese village on the eve of World War I. Buck was the first American woman to win the Nobel Prize in literature.
My favorite poet, Emily Dickinson, was such a kind person. What a nice tribute to her today.
Fascinating to learn who Emily trusted with her poems which are treasured forever because of that trust!
