Reflection on The Pearl

Now after chapter 4 it seems that being wealthy is not the only reason why Kino is obsessed with the pearl. Kino is sick and tired of the way people treat his race. To him pearl symbolizes the hope to make his culture be back on top. Although Kino's already a full grown man he wants to be the greatest man he can possibly be. He thinks the pearl is making him a man, but it's just destroying them. Kino killed a man, making his brother a criminal by helping, and hurt Juana. No one would think that is a real man.
