Summary: The Pearl is an action adventure about Kino and his pearl.
Review: I enjoyed The Pearl by John Steinbeck because the author keeps the storyline moving with continuous action and adventure. Kino and his family struggle to survive. They live in a brush house near the ocean. Kino finds the perfect pearl of the world. He believes it will bring his family great wealth and happiness. However, the pearl brings out the bad traits of evil, greed, and sorrow for Kino and many others. After Kino has stabbed a man, his canoe and home have been destroyed, and his son dies from a bullet wound, Kino comes to the conclusion that the pearl needs to be returned to the ocean. Kino and Juana, his wife, return the pearl to the ocean in hopes of returning to the happiness of their old world.
