The Old Man and the Sea

author: Ernest Hemingway
literary genre: literary fiction
how much I recommend this book: 10/10


The Old Man and the Sea is a cult shirt novel written by Ernest Hemingway, that everyone should know. 
It's a story about battle between old but hard-working and persistent man and a large marlin.
I know that thin novel isn't for everyone - a lot of people won't understand that. Anyway, I'm sure that even if it looks boring, you sould give it a chance.

I greet and encourage you to read.
Hope that you'll try it and enjoy it :)
See you in next post!
