Synopsis "La Perla (in Spanish)"

En "El mar de Cortés", que Steinbeck escribió con Edward Rickett, fruto de su pasión por la biología marina, se narra una historia oída en la Baja California que más tarde se convertiría en el germen de "La perla". En su novela, Steinbeck mantiene el esquema argumental de la leyenda, pero la dota de una densidad humana que la convierte en una de las narraciones más intensas y conmovedoras de la literatura contemporánea, una auténtica obra maestra, que el director Emilio Fernández llevó a la gran pantalla en 1945.
La historia de Kino el pescador, de su hijo Coyotito y de la perla más hermosa jamás hallada permite a Steinbeck mostrar sus innegables dotes para la descripción de la vida natural y para la exploración de la conducta humana, pero encierra además un entramado de símbolos que permiten leerla como una parábola acerca de la relación del individuo con la sociedad.
Probablemente "La perla" es la mejor novela breve de John Steinbeck; sin duda, la más leída y rica.

John Steinbeck (1902- 1968) was born in Salinas, California. He studied at Stanford University and during his youth worked as a laborer and fruit picker. His first success was Tortilla Flat (1935), a story between picaresque and romantic about Mexican immigrants settled around Monterey (California). In 1936, he wrote a series of seven reports for The San Francisco News, which he later published as The Harvest Gypsies. In 1939, his most famous work appeared: The Grapes of Wrath (Pulitzer Prize 1940), which tells the sad story of a family from the impoverished state of Oklahoma that migrates to California during the economic depression of the thirties; this work, received as a moving document of social protest, was adapted into a film by John Ford in 1940. Among his extensive literary work are also the novels Of Mice and Men (1936), The Pearl (1947) and East of Eden (1962), and screenplays for movies, such as the one he wrote for Viva Zapata! by Elia Kazan. In 1962, Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize in Literature.

La cubierta no es la que sale en la fotografía. Es la típica cubierta de Edhasa.... blanca, con el lateral marrón, y una perla como ilustración. La letra es lo suficientemente grande para que la lectura sea apacible y ligera. Un libro que se lee en una sentada.
