In this story The Pearl the main character, Kino, finds a pearl and in the beginning of the story its the best thing ever but by the end it ruins their lives. I think the overall theme in the story is that what seems good right now might turn out to be something worse later on. The pearl like I said seemed great but turned out bad. Juana realized that but it took Kino a lot longer to realize that. By the end of the story Kino attacked Juana and after that I think Kino kind of started to realize that he might have been going crazy. So he got sense of himself got his canoe and left and took the pearl and put it where it came from. Like I said the theme of this story was that what seems good right now might turn out to be something worse later on.
