Book Report The Pearl

Kink has more fears then he lets on. Kink, being the man of the house, must act strong and hide his fear, while his wife, Juan, expresses her fear in losing her child. The Doctor who “treated” Coyote also expresses fear in the loss Of his luxury and wealth. The Doctor indulges in his wealth and once Kink and Juan find the pearl, the Doctor heads over to their house to get what wealth he can get his hands on. The main protagonist of the book is Kink, who is the husband of Juan. Kink is shown as being a family man who maintains his life with Juan in the most dutiful and simplistic way.
Kink finds “The Pearl of the World” and has visions of what his life will be like now that he has enough money to support his family. He would like to remarry his wife in a church, baptize his child, educate his child, etc. Kink can only imagine what he would do with all this money. With this, Kink fears the greed that comes with having wealth. Many people who come across this type of wealth forget where they come from. Kink doesn’t want to be like that. He wants to spread his wealth with his neighbors and his relatives. He doesn’t want to leave anybody behind.
The novel states that, “Every man suddenly became related to Kink’s pearl… ” (3. 30), which shows that the pearl isn’t Kink’s, but is the whole neighbor hood’s pearl. Kink would share the wealth with his neighbors. Kink didn’t want the pearl to change him as a person. As it says in the novel, “From now on they (neighbors) would watch Kink and Juan very closely to see whether riches turned their heads, as riches turn all people’s heads. ” (3. 46), which shows that the neighbors are watching whether Kink’s greatest fear of greed will come back to haunt him.

Kink’s ability to maintain his composure through the novel shows that he is able to hide his fear very well. Whenever something evil or good happens, Kink has a theme music that plays in his head. Kink fears the evil music. As readers, we are aware of when the evil theme music is playing. While we know what music is playing Juan is unaware of how Kink is feeling. An example of when the evil music was playing was when they went to the pearl dealers, “He heard in his ears the evil music. And on the black velvet the great pearl glistened, so that the dealer could not keep his eyes from it. ” (4. 42).
Kink eared the evil music, but when the dealers rejected the pearl, he left with his head held strong. He showed Juan that they had nothing to fear, but he was really dying on the inside from the evil music. Although Kink had fears which were unknown to Juan, she had fears which she made aware to Kink. Juan repeated told Kink that she was afraid of losing Coyote, their son. Coyote was bitten by a scorpion and needed aid from a doctor. The doctor refused to see Coyote simply because they had no money. Once they found the pearl, the doctor came “willingly’ (for the pearl) to help the boy who needed assistance.
As we see Coyote health fluctuate from being healthy to being unwell, we see how Juan reacts. Once Coyote was bit, Juan was hysterically crying because she thought her worse fear was going to become a reality. Juan loved her son like any mother would, and the thought of losing him made her feel sick. Once she saw Coyote recover from the bite, she was ecstatic. She shared this excitement with Kink and the neighborhood. The town was talking about how the pearl saved the boy’s life. Without the pearl, the doctor wouldn’t have come. A minor character in this novel is the Doctor (no real name was given).
The actor may be a minor character, but he played a role in the recovery Of Coyote. The only reason why the doctor went to Kink and Sauna’s house to treat Coyote was because of the pearl. The pearl was of value and is known to be “The Pearl of the World”. If the Doctor treated Coyote, he could ask for the pearl as payment. By saying this, we know that the Doctors biggest fear is the loss in his wealth and luxury. He sits around thinking about places in the world and all the money he has. He cannot live without his wealth. As it says in the novel, men Doctor, back in his house, settled into his chair and looked t his watch.
His people (servants) brought him a little supper of chocolate and sweet cakes and fruit, and he stared at the food discontentedly. ” (3. 49). The reason why the Doctor stared at the food “discontentedly’ was because he was thinking of the pearl and all the money the pearl would bring him. Money is powerful, but the lack of it causes uncertainty in the future. In conclusion, each character is shown to be emotionally strong. The characters do not like to display their weakness. Fear could be considered a weakness. Kink and the Doctor choose to hide their fears, while Juan infidels her fear in Kink.
