520 | _aThe Old Man and the Sea is a masterpiece by Ernest Hemingway, one of the 20th century’s greatest writers. The simple plot contains no symbolism or philosophy; Hemingway just vividly describes a joyous triumph won in a relentless, agonizing battle by an old man who never ceases to struggle. With its simple and powerful language, the work has been praised for exhibiting Hemingway’s belief that although life is a fight and defeat its ultimate outcome, the dignity of the battle is itself worthy of respect. There isn't any symbolism. The sea is the sea. The old man is an old man. The boy is a boy and the fish is a fish. The shark are all sharks no better and no worse. All the symbolism that people say is shit. What goes beyond is what you see beyond when you know. | ||
