Summary: The evil pearl
Review: The Pearl by John Steinbeckis a literature that is based on Mexican Folk Tale. The drama involves hopelessness, greetiness,and evil. Simultaneously , Kino the protanist, who is a poor diver made a great dicovery . He found the "The Pearl of the world", which was "Perfect as moon".This pearl represented his chance to give a better future to his family. In his ambition to achive his dreams, Kino made a dramatic change of attitude against Juana ,his wife, who was a religious women. She stated that "The Pearl is like a sin". How far is the reality of kino's destiny?
As a student I recommend this ingenious novela of "Classic Simmplicity".The story presents a mysterious darkness of evil, which provides suspence to the reader . Evetually the author uses a great variety of literature languaje such as; similes, methaphors,and personification .Also the narrator involves imagination that relates the secrets of nature with evil .This will cause agreat interest to any reader.

Review: Kino and Juana are poor people in a small town in Baja California, mexico. Juana is a strong and religious wife.
Kino is the only person who makes the decisions in his family.
He finds a beautiful pearl to save his son.In the beginning the pearl is "perfect as a moon" because Kino dreams for another life in the future.Also the pearl is the greatest pearl in the world,because they can resolve all problems that they have.

In this story I give five stars because this can be a real story in our life. Many people can be greedy and dangerous for something valuable.I recommend this book because it is very important to know about the socialism in the country.I like this book because Kino is very poor but he always stays with his family together, always protecting them.

Summary: What you do is what you get!
Review: The Pearl is by John Steinbeck. The story took place in Baja California, Mexico inside a town called La Paz which mean peace. But it changed when a poor fisherman Kina found the pearl.
"It was the greatest pearl in the world." It made teh town like a "colonial animal" because people in the town are tiger which is high society like the doctors, the character in the book, and some are mice which is lower society like the poor fishermen, beggers...ect. The pearl made their fingertips burn and changed Kino's life. What will Kino do with this pearl? What is the destiny of this Pearl?

I will give The Pearl four stars because it teaches you not to be greedy and things will not get it easy. I will recommend this book because you can learn that if you want something too much then you will lose it.

Summary: "the greatest pearl of the world"
Review: The pearl by john steinbeck is a really excellent story about a poor fisher man who became ambitious when he found the greatest peral of the world.Kino,Juana and coyotito are the main characters of this story.They were a unigue and calm family.They always were trying to protect each other from the evil things until kino found "the pearl".From there on everything changed.Kino became like "an animal".he alwayswas thinknig of himself,rather tham listening to his wife suggestionsto throw away the evil pearl.also trying to sell the pearl kino had pass a lot of things which caused a controversy in his religion, family and his people.

The pearl is an interesting book which contains a lot of literary elements.It has a lot of foreshawing which makes it more interesting and facinating.Im going to give to it 3 starts because from there I learned that we should never like a thing,person,etc too much because it will make us do things that we would not expect.so try to read the book and you would see that this book is really good.
