I will write on how vital the story is with pearl and how pearl is a symbol in every mean. Pearl is the most complex character in the story and the largest symbol. She is a living version of the Scarlet letter and without pearl no one would have known HEster had commited this crime. She is the physical consewuence to this sexual sin and even an indicator of transgression. However she is also a blessing and everyday gives Hester a reason to live and thrive. She shows Hester everyday and reminds her of the passion and the love that was used and put forth into creating the beuatiful creature of pearl herself. Pearl, is a weird child and her life really begins when she finds out who her father is. she goes on to understand the world and live a joyous life with an artistocrat still caring deeply for her mother. There are constant reminders through out the book of how she is the symbol. first on the staffol when she will hide the letter with the baby, but that defeats the purpose in itself. This symbolism carries on the entire book also when the town wishes to send pearl away from her mother, but why would they do that, pearl must remind hester everyday of this horrible sin. I think i can capture a lot through purl an indirect object which is also the very meaning of the book itself.
