[i]The Good Earth Trilogy[/i] by Pearl S. Buck

It's an amazing and thought-provoking Chinese epic about a poor farmer who builds his own wealth up from rags to riches, and raises 3 sons and one daughter who all take very different paths in life according to how their childhood influenced them. It spans 4 generations and is the most beautifully written and authentic portrayal of 19th and 20th century China.
