The Old Man and The Sea by Ernest Hemingway
Another installment of ONE STAR REVIEWS for Ernest Hemingway’s THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA.
i had to read this for english class a few years back…yuck. this was probably one of the most boring, simple books i’ve ever read…i realize hemingway writes very simply but jeez….here’s the plot…this old man goes out into the sea with a dinky little boat….he fishes…and fishes…and fishes…and fishes…then some sharks come..he fights them..they come again…and again…and eat what he has caught…and then….here’s the climax…he goes home…Zzzzzzzz

I totally agree. For Whom the Bell Tolls is one of my favorite books but this one…snore.
