Book Reviews of The Pearl (Centennial Edition)

Book Review: A Simple Story Simply Told
Summary: 5 Stars

The Pearl is essentially a morality tale about how the pursuit of wealth can lead to unhappiness. Perhaps that is unfair; putting it that way conjures up images of preachiness and boredom. The Pearl is neither preachy nor boring. It is a simple, short story, well told. It is well worth the short time it will take you to read it.
