Things of this Earth

THINGS OF THIS EARTH
a novel by Mike Tucker "A stunning achievement-Things of this Earth is a magnificent novel and a classic journey story with an ingenious plot, rich in the details won by Mike Tucker's fieldwork in China. To understand China in our time, this is a must-read: The only book by a foreign writer, ever, that puts you right in the heart of the Chinese Revolution on the North China Coast. A gripping read, simply brilliant-deep and poignant and moving, I could not put it down."
Jenny Thurgood, London "Things of this Earth can build a bridge of peace between China and America. It is that good. Profoundly insightful and very gripping, Things of this Earth is very moving and rich in the currents that flow in Mike Tucker's fiction-justice and injustice, truth and the corruption of truth, love and hate and courage. Nomad is the Odysseus of our time."
Josh Kavanagh, Connaught, Ireland THINGS OF THIS EARTH "And when I die,
and when I'm gone,
there'll be one child born
and a world to carry on, to carry on."
