From the exceptional mind of Hemingway, the book tells us the story of an old fisherman, who kills a huge Marlin but loses it later on. The book follows a poetic description of all the events that happen, but Hemingway despises symbolism here. It’s just the story of another old man, another fisher, who loses his livelihood one day. A brilliant read and a modern classic, Old Man and The Sea is a commendable work of literature.
