My sympathies with you about
The Pearl. It begins quite nicely, and the middle development of the theme makes sense, but the ending is quite sparce...
The only Steinbeck that I've actually found a continuing message is in
The Winter of Our Discontent, but it was too old-school humanist for me to like.
