The story of 'the Pearl Hunter' is so amazing and touching. So much of natural beauty exposures and cultural differences' disputes. The sun set, the stormy seas, the waves, the trees, islands, ships, rocks, and mighty pearl that are all around make it more fascinating.Yet, the various characteristics presented are well presented; how two frank opposite characters are contrasted. How dignity and propriety are considered highly possessed by the upper-class people. How the low class people would always be treated low and made to suffer all mistakes and be blamed for anything. This was a natural law of the cruel life back then.
How rich people raise their daughters to meet socially high status and be made to marry young rich men for social status. Yet, the daughters seem to understand the meaning of social life better than their parents for they love the men of their hearts not for their richness and status but gentleness and kindness. This drives their parents mad and furiuos.
Constance is a sample of a wise and knowledgeable daughter of a ship captain but fail to think of social status above all as her father demands of her. She preferes loving a man of simple and tender and wise and on her father service than loving a rich man. Constance love Alexander who she first saves on his way to find protection from his first employer. In return Alexander who fristly meets Constance on her kindness saving him and taking him aboard has ever since has a strong loving feeling to her.
Life was hard for Alexander but his meeting Constance brought him a precious life. Moreover since Constance loves him despite his no posession of wealth. Their love grew stronger despite the uncertain future of their love they know very well. Lucky that Constance has a stone heart that she quite inherited from her father that she could always ensure her father that she was doing the right and justice things.
Being in several adventures together, Constance and Alexander were tightly bound with a tender love. And the wise Alexander was very responsibel of whatever he did and made Constance's father's stoney heart melted to give him a chance to love his daughter.
It was a happy ending that Constance's father finally approved their love and gave them support for future marriage. What a lovely story of almost the picture of a true life. I like reading the plots of this novel and very interested in the stories. The way the mystery solved, the way the problems presented and solved, the way the love grows are all awesome. Well done KIm Wilkins! What a great novel!
