Brief introduction:
Hemingway, L899 ~ 1961, American novelist, 1954 Nobel Literature Award winner.
After reading:
A round of sunset, a sea, a leaf boat, an old house, an old man, a child, perfect piece, rigorous treatment, a concise text, a deep connotation, a profound handling.
There is no gorgeous phrase, there is no more people, there is no complex plot, but everything in the author is lifelike than the deliberate description. I can imagine the scene depicted in the novel, dawn, sea breeze, sunset, tuna, fishing boat. . . Everything is so natural and familiar, and you can feel the strong loneliness and sadness of HEMINWAY from the novel.
Three scenes in the novel are the most unforgettable:
One is a child waiting for the return of the old people at the pier. Simply description has made me feel the feelings of children who are not prone to the elderly. This stunning force that is never contemplated is unable to replace the earth-shattering plot, which makes me profound experience to get great.
The other is the old man fights with sharks at sea. After consuming with the energy consumption with the mulk fish, the elderly launched the fight with sharks, although the elderly failed to keep their results, but produced the eternal classic: a man can be destroyed but not defeated. It can be said that this sentence is the sublimation of the whole novel. It is also a spell that the old man calls the last energy of his own flesh, which makes small people look tall in front of nature.
Another is the return of the elderly. The old man returned to the shore in the early morning of the fight, under the hazy light, dragging the tired body and heart, crawling toward her hut. It seems that all unfortunateness is coming to the old man, and the loneliness and sadness in the novel arrived at a climax. I can't say that the elderly failed or succeeded, and he couldn't say whether the old man is loneliness and misfortune. Although they were excluded by some fishermen, they got the sincerity of children, although they did not keep their own results, but they were in the spirit of nature. The novel ended in the old people's lion dream, which also predicted that the old man will continue to fight the sea in the next dawn, because he has an amazing willpower.
A short story of a must-read.
Pay tribute to Santiago,
Pay tribute to HEMINWAY.
