Viking: NY. Good in Good dust jacket. 1958. First Edition; Sixth Printing. Hardcover. Stated 6th printing, Nov 1958. Ex-Library copy with all the usual indications including removed pocket on front fly, tape and tape ghosts and some trim to edges of inside DJ flaps. Note, most of the publisher's $2.75 price remains. This reprint is in the same format and has the same jacket art as the original first printing from 1947. Overall a nice reading or holding copy of a scarce early reprint. As Is. ** (This book is in our possession.

Sinopsis
Like his father and grandfather before him, Kino is a poor diver, gathering pearls from the gulf beds that once brought great wealth to the Kings of Spain and now provide Kino, Juana, and their infant son with meager subsistence. Then, on a day like any other, Kino emerges from the sea with a pearl as large as a sea gull's egg, as "perfect as the moon." With the pearl comes hope, the promise of comfort and of security . . . A story of classic simplicity, based on a Mexican folk tale, The Pearl explores the secrets of man's nature, the darkest depths of evil, and the luminous possibilities of love.
