3 (C) The Novel
John Steinbeck, The Pearl
Introduction
Having desires and dreams of prosperity is not a bad thing but we must guard against becoming obsessed. In an attempt to pursue our desires we may end up endangering our lives and those of the immediate family members. In The Pearl by John Stenbeck, Kino gets into trouble as he tries to achieve his desires.
(Accept any other relevant introduction-2 marks)
Although Kino runs away because of his safety and that ofhis immediate family members, he still clings to the pearl with the hope of getting a better selling price. Kino starts on a journey to a foreign land whose dangers and security he knows very little about. Kino is armed with a sword against heavily armed trackers. Kino thinks that the trackers are after both their lives and the pearl. He manages to kill the trackers, however, their only son Coyotito is shot dead.
