The Old Man and the Sea (translation 40)

About This Novel

"The Old Man and the Sea" is Hemingway's representative work. After eighty-four consecutive days without catching a fish, Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, finally caught a big marlin alone. However, the fish was so big that he dragged his boat on the sea for three days before exhaustion. He killed him and tied him to the side of the boat. On the way back, he was repeatedly attacked by sharks. When he finally returned to port, only the head, tail and a spine were left. Although this is a work with a simple story and a small length, it is rich in meaning. Many teachers use it as a teaching material on heroism education and recommend it to students, making it an enduring bestseller.
