As they return to their village, they carry…‘two towers of darkness,’ that is the “rifle” and the body of Coyotito (page 116). This is his fate and he recognises that he cannot change it. He realises that Coyotito, whom he thought could acquire education and make them free, had died. As he kills the trackers, the optimistic song in his mind changes and he heard… ‘the cry of death’ (page 115). At the village he wrestles and kills those who try to steal ‘his’ pearl. The theme of revenge occurs through Kino’s desire to pay back the unjust and corrupt society that has oppressed his people for many years. The last dream is to acquire the ‘rifle’ as a way of justifying his ability to provide and protect his family. To dreams of a better lifestyle (page 44-45).

Kino hopes to have a church wedding when he sells the pearl.Ĭlass differences emerges as the writer compares the village and the town “…where the town brush houses stopped and the city of stone and plaster began, the city of harsh walls.” (page 24). They believe that the gods or God will bless them one day with a lucky pearl. The villagers rely on fishing pearls from the sea as their main economic activity.
