“The old man and the sea”

The old man named Santiago fishing in his boat at Gulfstream. For eighty-four days, he has not hunted any fish. For the first forty days, he was with the guy helping him. His name was Manolini. But the boy's parents, seeing him return home without a hunt, advised to go out to the sea with another boat and leave the loser. The boy was looking sadly to the elderly returning old man and helping him to take the empty boat.

The activities are developing in a small fishing town of Cuba. In the old man's hut, they talk about tomorrow's fishing that the old man's fortune should finally smile. About baseball and famous athletes, for example, from De Majo. When the old man sleeps, there are no fights, womens, or great events in his dreams. He sees Africa and the great lions coming to the shore.

In the morning an old man prepares the boat and tells Manolini that he is helping to succeed today.

Fishing ships go one after the other into the sea. The old man loves the sea and thinks of the sea as a woman. He bites the hooks and throws water. Waiting: Highly speaks with birds and fish. He feels everything on the bottom of the water. Here is one of the carpets shocked. It feels a terrible weight and force that stretches the hook. The dramatic struggle between the old man and the huge fish starts for several hours. Trying to pull the thread, but it does not succeed. It is a pity that the boy is not with him. But it is still good that the fish pulls down and not down.

It passes four hours. It's afternoon. The old man thinks he can not continue this long. After all, the fish will die and it will be possible to approach it. But the fish is durable.

It's night. The fish removes the boat from the shore. Havana lights are seen far away. The old man is tired, but he does not let the hook. Thinks about the fish. He even regrets it. Until he dies, he will not be separated from the fish.

The fish is not strong enough. He has weakened. But the powers of the old man also cross. Finally, the fish starts to appear. It's beautiful and twice bigger than the boat. Appearing on the surface of the water, he is drowning again, and the old man has to strain his powers. He does not believe in God, but begins to read "Our Father". Want to show the fish what the person is capable of.

It goes another day. He remembers baseball tournaments to deviate from the old man. He

remembers how to win the powerful Negro in the fight, and then decide not to fight again, because his hand is necessary for him to fishing.

The fight with fish continues. The fish draws close to the boat, leaving the mediterranean. Preparation of a glaze that will hit the fish last blow. Surely the fish is surrendered. The fish dive.

When the fish goes out the next time, the old man is hit. Feeling of nausea and weakness. Draws a fish and binds the boat. Calculates the value of fish and believes that great Di Majiro can be proud of himself.

It passes an hour. It looks like the first shark. Starts tearing the fish. The old man hit him and the shark went down to the floor, carrying a dove and a large piece of fish. The old man thinks that man can be defeated, but impossible to destroy.

Eat a piece of fish. He looks at the sharks approaching group. Appears to the dagger attached to their shoulders. Sharks attack the fish. The old man fights with them. He killed one of them. After all, the sharks are back. They have nothing to eat anymore.

When the old man reaches the shore, all are asleep. The boy meets the tired and heated old man. Manolin calms the old man. He believes he will succeed and will be able to really be useful after gaining many skills.

Rich tourists come to the shore in the morning. Surprisingly, the size of the fish's skeleton. The waiter is trying to explain them the drama that took place on the eve of the day, but they are far from understanding it.
