After 84 days of poor fishing, an old fisherman was seen off by a boy who admired him and went out to sea alone in a small boat. Eventually, a big fish responds to the fishing line. The sea imposes yet another test on the old man who fights to the death with a giant marlin he has never seen before. With a mature brush, he depicts the human spirit that never gives in, even though it is at the mercy of the threats and harshness of nature. This is a literary achievement that earned the author the Nobel Prize in Literature, and is an eternal masterpiece.
