The old man and the sea
He
was
an
old
man
who
fished
alone
in
a
skiff
in
the
Gulf
Stream
and
he
had
gone
eighty
-
four
days
now
without
taking
a
fish
.
In
the
first
forty
days
a
boy
had
been
with
him
.
But
after
forty
days
without
a
fish
the
boy
’
s
parents
had
told
him
that
the
old
man
was
now
definitely
and
finally
salao
,
which
is
the
worst
form
of
unlucky
,
and
the
boy
had
gone
at
their
orders
in
another
boat
which
caught
three
good
fish
the
first
week
.
It
made
the
boy
sad
to
see
the
old
man
come
in
each
day
with
his
skiff
empty
and
he
always
went
down
to
help
him
carry
either
the
coiled
lines
or
the
gaff
and
harpoon
and
the
sail
that
was
furled
around
the
mast
.
The
sail
was
patched
with
flour
sacks
and
,
furled
,
it
looked
like
the
flag
of
permanent
defeat
.
The
old
man
was
thin
and
gaunt
with
deep
wrinkles
in
the
back
of
his
neck
.
The
brown
blotches
of
the
benevolent
skin
cancer
the
sun
brings
from
its
reflection
on
the
tropic
sea
were
on
his
cheeks
.
The
blotches
ran
well
down
the
sides
of
his
face
and
his
hands
had
the
deep
-
creased
scars
from
handling
heavy
fish
on
the
cords
.
But
none
of
these
scars
were
fresh
.
They
were
as
old
as
erosions
in
a
fishless
desert
.
Everything
about
him
was
old
except
his
eyes
and
they
were
the
same
color
as
the
sea
and
were
cheerful
and
undefeated
.
"
Santiago
,
"
the
boy
said
to
him
as
they
climbed
the
bank
from
where
the
skiff
was
hauled
up
.
"
I
could
go
with
you
again
.
We
’
ve
made
some
money
.
"
The
old
man
had
taught
the
boy
to
fish
and
the
boy
loved
him
.
"
No
,
"
the
old
man
said
.
"
You
’
re
with
a
lucky
boat
.
Stay
with
them
.
"
"
But
remember
how
you
went
eighty
-
seven
days
without
fish
and
then
we
caught
big
ones
every
day
for
three
weeks
.
"
"
I
remember
,
"
the
old
man
said
.
"
I
know
you
did
not
leave
me
because
you
doubted
.
"
"
It
was
papa
made
me
leave
.
I
am
a
boy
and
I
must
obey
him
.
"
"
I
know
,
"
the
old
man
said
.
"
It
is
quite
normal
.
"
