"But man is not made for defeat," he said."A man can be destroyed,but not defeated."
A few days ago,I had some free time at the university.I decided to go to the central library and read something until the class starts.The literary part of the library is really a shame.There are very few literature books in comparison to others.Probably about a hundred or so.Anyhow,I was searching among them when I came up with this copy of Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea.The poor book seems to have endured many painful years.I had not read any of Hemingway's books,so I started right there.It absorbed me.
I can definitely say it is one of the finest books I've read.It entered the list of my favorite books instantly.
The Old Man and the Sea,for those who have not read it,is a story of a man's struggle with the beasts of the sea; a story of a human being's unbelievable power.The old man is a mere old fisherman,yet he shows how much power a human being can have when he wants.Hemingway's strong and vital style absorbs the reader.It's one of those books you cannot easily put away before finishing it.
