“There it lay, the great pearl, perfect as the moon.”

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.

From the time the work was published in 1947 until the present, this work never ceases to provide insight into the nature of greed, of jealousy, and of humankind's misplaced priority of the worship of anything that has monetary value. It still amazes me, after so many readings, how moved I am at the story's end, and yet, how mercurial the story's theme is taken. If only we could truly learn and change as a result of understanding Steinbeck's insights. . .what a better world this would be.

Timeless Classic

My favorite author is John Steinbeck. I have loved all of his writings because his character development and writing style is so satisfying. Nectar for the mind. I highly recommend this Audible book with the finessed expressions by narrator and wonderful actor Hector Elizondo. I can’t imagine anyone more perfect for the reading of this short novel.

Wonderful classic. He captures the human heart in his prose. Human misery and man’s desires meet… and then we see what really matters.

The frustration that comes with disappointment and disillusionment.

This is the first time I've read this book. I had no idea what the story was about. I really enjoyed it. Great reader. Sometimes the lottery winner is actually a loser. BECAREFUL what to wish for.
Quick easy listen.

Getting your wish come true!

Everything about this presentation was fantastic. There was a lot of symbolism here, much of it not so abstruse. In place of all the other worthless detritus that secondary school students are forced to read, this would shine. But it is a great book for any age, so enjoy it. The narrator did a superlative job too !

The narrator was excellent, lending his low, hushed voice to the drama of the story, greatly enhancing it.
