classic story submitted by wendylv on July 18, 2014, 6:12am This book is an easy one to check off your list of Great-Classics-You-Should-Read. It's a good introduction to Hemingway, as well. Highly recommended.
A fine read submitted by kencza on June 23, 2022, 9:36am Hemingway's tale of the old fisherman, his young protege, and a titanic struggle to land the catch of a lifetime paints vivid pictures.
The Old Man and the Sea submitted by SBNB on June 28, 2022, 2:29pm I read this in 5th grade and enjoyed it. It's a good book and a classic.
