Review: The Pearl is a wonderful book which demonstrates the influence that family and greed have on a person. The story revolves around Kino, his wife Juana, and their infant son, Coyotito. Coyotito is bitten by a scorpion and needs medical attention. However, the town doctor refuses to see the child because of a lack of money on Kino's part. In order to change this, Kino goes out looking for pearls and finds a huge pearl. Kino is very pleased by this and thinks of all of the wonderful things he could buy Coyotito with the money from the pearl. In the meantime, Juana had done some home remedies for Coyotito's scorpion bite and the child was healing fine. When the doctor finds out about Kino's good fortune in finding the pearl he becomes eager to help the child because he wants part of the money from the pearl. This is where we begin to see greed play and important part in the novel. Kino buries the pearl in the corner of his hut in an attempt to hide it from anyone who would want to steal it from him. Kino also refuses to sell the pearl for the prices offered to him. Juana feels that the pearl is evil and will only bring evil to them and tells Kino to get rid of it, but he refuses. This is where all the tragedies begin and the true evil of the pearl is shown through to the end of the novel. The pearl symbolizes money, luxury, power, desire, and greed. These are the main aspects to the theme of this novel. The description Steinbeck uses to introduce characters is great. And the plot development is written just as well.

One day Kino found a pearl of the world and they made the song of the Pearl. Kino was poor and he wanted to sell the peal but the pearl has become evil.
Did Kino sells the pearl nor become a rich man at the end? Reaction: In my point of view, I'll give 3 stars. i think this book is sort of attractive to me, because this book is suspense like what i mentioned before, that if he sells the pearl nor he kept it himself?
