More about the book
Set against the backdrop of a once-thriving pearl-diving community, the narrative centers on Kino, a diver whose discovery of a magnificent pearl ignites a journey filled with themes of greed and the struggle against societal expectations. Inspired by a Mexican folk tale Steinbeck encountered during a visit to Baja California Sur, the story delves into profound questions about human purpose and the darker aspects of ambition. Through Kino's experiences, the novella poignantly examines the impact of wealth on relationships and morality.
