Book Reviews of The Pearl (Centennial Edition)
Book Review: re-read high school reading
Summary: 4 Stars
Strangely, great writers' work becomes "high school reading". Yes, read this in high school, but then come back to it later, when you understand more. The Pearl is an often-told story about the misfortunes from sudden riches. But it is a lot more: the pride and honor of an underclass, as well as its petty squabbles, and, overall, its helplessness. And then, once you are a husband, a wife, a parent, the hopes and fears of parents, and the fatigues and joys of marriage. All on a simple story stage.
