Novel: The Pearl

                                                              The Pearl






John Steinbeck have written a total of twenty-seven books and The Pearl is one of the famous novels. The story took place a long time ago .Chapter one of the story best describes the settings . The main character is Kino which is a fishermen . Kino has a wife called Juana and his baby called Coyotito. They lived in a Brush house nearby GULF . I guess that the story begins on a very early morning as the stars still shone .Kino awakened in the dark and Juana got up and goes to check on her son and make a corncake as usual .Kino sang a song which is clear and soft .The atmosphere which the writer created was peaceful at first. The atmosphere was changed after the scorpion appered. Coyotito was stang . They realized that the doctor would never come because they were poor. However , the only way they could do was finding a docter and requested for a help. The doctor was cruel and the only thing they could see was money . Whether the baby will survive or not arousing my interest. Will they become affluent one day ? I will keep on reading to find out the ending.
