THE PEARL - JOHN STEINBECK LEINEN

THE PEARL is Steinbeck's flawless parable about wealth and the evil it can bring. When Kino  an
Indian pearl-diver  finds 'the Pearl of the world' he believes that his life will be magically
transformed. He will marry Juana in church and their little boy  Coyotito  will be able to
attend school. Obsessed by his dreams  Kino is blind to the greed  fear and even violence the
pearl arouses in him and his neighbours. Haunting and lyrical  THE PEARL sets the values of the
civilized world against those of the primitive and finds them tragically inadequate.
