The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway

This 1952 novella draws on the years that Hemingway spent living in Key West in Florida and fishing in the gulf.

Based on a true story about a Cuban fisherman and his solitary battle with a great marlin, this is the book that restored Hemingway's flagging reputation, winning him the Pulitzer Prize and contributing to his Nobel Prize in 1954.

Come and enjoy this life-affirming book.
