Steinbeck's protagonist in The Pearl frequently hears songs that are connected to the action in the story. There is the Song of the Enemy, the Song of the Family, and the Song of the Pearl that Might Be. These songs clearly represent Kino's cultural heritage, but they are also tied to his emotions. In 300-500 words, identify a song that is important to you and describe the way in which the song impacts you. When do you listen to or hear the song? How does it affect you? You should also consider the way in which music impacts others. Considering the songs shared with you by your triad members, what commonalities can you identify in the role of music?
As always, be sure that you carefully check over your grammar, punctuation, spelling and capitalization!
