.... way Hester's life was ruined for so long was the ultimate price that Hester paid for Pearl. With Pearl, Hester's life was one almost never filled with joy, but instead a constant nagging. Pearl would harass her mother over the scarlet "A" which she wore. Pearl would also make her own "A" to wear, and sometimes she played games with her mother's, trying to hit it with rocks. When Hester would go into the town with Pearl, the other children would make fun of her, and Pearl would yell and throw dirt at them. So, in this case, Pearl symbolized the decimation of Hester's life and mental state. Although Hester had so .....

So far we get the idea that the bunkhouse was not the most beautiful place to live in, one of the only forms of entertainment in the bunkhouse was playing cards. Steinbeck described this setting with images of light and darkness next to each other. As Steinbeck said outside there is "evening brightness" and inside there is "dusk". When Steinbeck says that inside there is dusk, it's almost like a foreshadow of what's going to happen in the future. Most .....

He thinks there is no good on earth…Brown, waking from his dream, if it was a dream,…sees evil even where it is not…He had stumbled upon that “mystery of sin” which, rightly understood, provides the only sane and cheerful view of life there is. Understand in Brown’s fashion, if darkens and sours the world, withering hope and charity, and perverting whatever is truly good until it looks like evil at its worst: like blasphemy and hypocrisy.
