Hemingway is a great story teller. This is a simple book about an old fisherman who goes out to sea after so many days without a catch. This books is so simple and beautiful. It was Hemingway's last masterpiece.For Whom the Bell Tolls has been one of my favorite books and in my opinion his best. Old Man and the Sea is a great reminder of just how great of a story teller Hemingway was.There's no need going into the plot, just sit back and enjoy this short novel about a man and a fish (i know that doesn't sound exciting, but it's great)
