The Nobel Prize-winning and New York Times-bestselling author's memoir of making a movie in 1960s Japan, while mourning the loss of her husband.   Pearl S. Buck's children's story, The Big Wave, about two young friends whose lives are transformed when a volcano erupts and a tidal wave engulfs their village, was eventually optioned as a movie. A Bridge for Passing narrates the resulting adventure, the story of the people involved in the movie-making process (including Polish director Tad Danielewski), their many complications while shooting, and the experience of working in Japan at a time when memories of the war remained strong. As much as all this, the book is a poignant reflection on personal crisis, and relates Buck's grief over the death of her husband of twenty-five years, Richard Walsh, who was also her editor. A Bridge for Passing offers an intimate view of postwar Japan mixed with Buck's heartrending meditation on loss and love.   This ebook features an illustrated biography of Pearl S. Buck including rare images from the author's estate.… (mais)

When Pearl Buck’s novel The Big Wave was made into a movie in Japan, she wanted to be on the set to help. She was only in Japan for a few days before her husband, who had been ill for years, passed away. After returning to their home in Pennsylvania for his funeral, she decided to return to Japan so that she would have something to occupy her time and mind. This memoir is her description of the process of making the film, how she mourned for her husband, and how she moved on after his death.

Buck certainly led an interesting life. I found the description of how the movie was made to be the most interesting parts of the book. Buck’s reflections on her husband were slow and got a bit tedious after a while, but it’s hard to criticize her for that. ( )

Underlying the theme of the process of turning a book into a movie [The Big Wave] on-site in Japan, Buck deals with the grief process of the loss of her husband. Buck vividly describes the country and the culture as only she can; I loved this book. ( )
