The old man & the sea

---

The most popular work of fiction by a writer regarded as one of history's best, The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway is the simple story of Santiago, a fisherman in Havana. Aged and a shadow of his former strong self, he finds himself helpless and in the care of young Manolin. But after eighty-four days of catching no fish, Santiago's luck turns. When the old man manages to hook a great fish - the marlin - a surreal push-and-pull ensues. Written in a dreamy, stream-of-consciousness style, the book contains within it both adventure and a kind of wisdom that only comes after having lived a full life.
