Old Man and the Sea, by Ernest Hemingway (#0103) A novella, The Old Man and Sea tells the story of an old Cuban fisherman, Santiago, and his long lusty struggle isn't so much over one fish, but the act of living--living fully, actively, robustly. It tells the story of an old Cuban fisherman and his supreme ordeal: a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. In the end, his prized catch is literally eaten away by circling sharks. Hemingway is known to write stories of courage, strength and endurance in the face physical and emotional pain.Related product
