| Public details: A Hemingway novella about Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who breaks an 84-day unlucky streak by hooking a massive marlin the the Gulf Stream. In a grueling 3-day battle, he kills the fish but sharks consume it on the way home, leaving only a skeleton. Despite losing the catch, Santiago wins a spiritual victory, proving his endurance and dignity. The Old Man and the Sea won a Pulitzer for fiction and was the last book published by Hemingway before he died. |
