I could marry her,
for what it's worth,
but she would be like Pear Blossom
in The Good Earth.

Sylvia, how can you possibly know what he meant if you don't know the story?

Dear Ron, I knew the TITLE and THE AUTHOR, world famous, English, lived in Old China, but I do not know the STORY you mentioned, so odd I knew all things about PEARL S. BUCK but none of her stories. Sorry

The sanctity of marriage must always be uphold. Yet, it is sometimes traded with customs, traditions and financial considerations.
