Like his father and grandfather before him, Kino is a poor
diver, gathering pearls from the gulf beds that once brought
great wealth to the Kings of Spain and now provide Kino, Juana,
and their infant son with meager subsistence. Then, on a day
like any other, Kino emerges from the sea with a pearl as large
as a sea gull's egg, as perfect as the moon. With the pearl
comes hope, the promise of comfort and of security....A story of
classic simplicity, based on a Mexican folk tale, The Pearl
explores the secrets of man's nature, the darkest depths of
evil, and the luminous possibilities of love.
