The Old Man & the Sea

---

The Old Man and the Sea is an account of the simple life of a less successful fisherman. Santiago is shown to be pitted against the vagaries of nature since he has been unsuccessful at snaring a fish for 84 days. Even when successful, his efforts at showing off his skills are thwarted by sharks who strip the fish, leaving only the skeleton behind. The Old Man is the symbol that represents all of mankind and the Sea is the force of nature that shows us how minuscule man really is in the grand scheme of things.
