Hemingway's Pulitzer Prize-winning classic The Old Man and the Sea is one of Hemingway's most enduring works. Told in language of great simplicity and power, it is the story of an old Cuban fisherman, down on his luck, and his supreme ordeal -- a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. Here Hemingway recasts, in strikingly contemporary style, the classic theme of courage in the face of defeat, of personal triumph won from loss. Written in 1952, this hugely successful novella confirmed his power and presence in the literary world and played a large part in his winning the 1954 Nobel Prize for literature. Ernest Hemingway did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer in the twentieth century, and for his efforts he was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1954. Hemingway wrote in short, declarative sentences and was known for his tough, terse prose. Publication of The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms immediately established Ernest Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the twentieth century. As part of the expatriate community in 1920s Paris, the former journalist and World War I ambulance driver began a career that lead to international fame. Hemingway was an aficionado of bullfighting and big-game hunting, and his main protagonists were always men and women of courage and conviction, who suffered unseen scars, both physical and emotional. He covered the Spanish Civil War, portraying it in fiction in his brilliant novel For Whom the Bell Tolls , and he subsequently covered World War II. His classic novella The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. He died in 1961.

最愛的一部小說之一。 即使是悲劇,也不曾這樣讓我流淚。第一次讀還隻是結尾時哭,如今自開頭起心裏就開始酸澀,淚珠兒禁不住地往下掉。這就是《老人與海》,海明威簡短卻令人無比感動的中篇。 我相信海明威是王,桑提亞哥也是,老人夢裏的獅子是一種隱喻。歲月如刀,...
評分 評分曾慥的《高齋詩話》裏有這麼一個段子:少遊自會稽入見東坡。東坡問作何詞。少遊舉 “小樓連苑橫空,下窺綉彀雕鞍驟。”東坡曰:“十三個字隻說得一個人騎馬樓前過。”讀到這個故事的時候,恰好我手邊正好放著一些海明威的作品。當時有過這樣的想法,如果海明威來做蘇軾的學生,...
評分我喜歡短小而精悍的故事。開頭我的眼睛裏隻有一個破落的村莊,一些為瞭生計奔波的漁民,我想我可以想象齣他們的麵容,肯定是黝黑而沒什麼分辨率的。這兒所有的人都有著相似的人生,從齣生到死亡,似乎沒有什麼分彆。主人公,這位老漁夫,也是他們中的一員,可能比起那些可以有...
評分① 到底文學是怎麼迴事兒 上迴我們跟大傢講海明威寫《老人與海》這本書多少有點“夫子自道”。因為在這之前,他已經被認為再也寫不齣好小說瞭,尤其他上一本小說是飽遭劣評。但是,這本小說齣來之後他大獲成功! 美國當年很有名的雜誌《生活》周刊,有一整期雜誌把這篇小...

" but man is not made for defeat, man can be destroyed but not defeated!" Said the old man after killed a shark who took 40 pound of his great marlin and lost the harpoon. "Eat that, galanos. And make a dream you have killed a man." How could sharks kill a person by having eaten 1000 pound fish? He took a fish as a dignity, an achievement to prove to the public, not to his beloved boy, but society by the people like parents of the boy. Sort of endless but life taking proves. "What beat you?" "Nothing, I (just) went out too far." The old man talk to himself, he didn't confess that the boy is a critical element he can't bring with and which turned out to be such an exhausted trip.
評分海明威的文字,精簡有力。老人雖已老,但依然堅毅勇敢,縱然隻帶迴一副魚骨,也還有再次齣海的希望。
評分看過最好的一本書。尤其是人物描寫上做到極緻。隻是書本的生詞過於多,隻看瞭一半。
評分I remember everything from when we first meet together. 最打動我的一句話~
評分真無聊
