The Pearl:
A profound meditation on the forces of evil lurking within society and humanity, it effortlessly engages with major questions about greed, justice, and destiny. Steinbeck transports us to a poor village on the sea's edge, where a rare pearl flashes in the hand of a simple fisherman, opening the doors of greed, fear, and desire. Every detail in the text is carefully crafted: from the family music Kino hears within himself to the sinister note that creeps in with every approaching danger.
The language is poetic without affectation, and the symbols weave themselves into everyday life without affectation. Silent dialogues, glances, small movements...carry a narrative that parallels the events. The translation is precise and smooth, preserving the pulse of the text and capturing its aesthetic codes about when a dream turns into a trap, and about the world when it sees the poor as mere opportunities, not human beings.

Read the story first

As a "John Steinbeck"-Fan I of course liked reading this book, being one of his classics. But I recommend skipping the first few pages (containing background-information as well as interpretations) and reading the story first, since the first few pages contain spoilers and information that changes your view on the story (which was not intended by the author).
