"The Old Man and the Sea" tells the story: 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 he was exhausted. 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.
Once this work was published, it received unanimous praise from critics, and Hemingway won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954.
