Best Answer: A small village of La Pez in Mexico. The Pearl is a 1947 novella by American author John Steinbeck. Like his father and grandfather before him, Kino is a poor diver, gathering pearls from the Gulf beds that once brought great wealth to Spain and now provided Kino, Juana, and their infant son Coyotito, with meager subsistence. Then, on one day like any other, Coyotito gets stung by a scorpion. Kino can't pay for a doctor to heal Coyotito, so he searches for a pearl. With the pearl comes hope, the promise of comfort and of security at the cost of defying the system.
