Kino´s life was poor and simple until he found the largest pearl in the world. He thought that the pearl would bring happiness to his family. But instead of happiness, the pearl brought fear and danger.

The writing is spare and simple, and I found myself enjoying it more than I expected. This book is good, for what it is: a parable. The tale is didactic, beating the reader over the head with the message that wealth only brings misery and that a simple life is better than one filled with fear.
