Mit dem vorliegenden Werk erreichte Hemmingway einen Gipfel seiner Erzählkunst. In dieser Geschichte von dem alten Fischer, dem nach Monaten glückloser Ausfahrt endlich ein riesiger Fisch an die Angel geht und der diesen Fang seines Lebens in einem erschöpfenden Kampf wieder an das Meer und seine Haie verliert, durchdringen sich große Wirklichkeit und Symbol.
Kurzbeschreibung:
Regarded by many as the simplest and greatest story he ever wrote - from the Nobel Prize-winning author of A Farewell to Arms
Klappentext:
One of the greatest novels of the 20th century by one of the greatest writers in American history - THE BOOK THAT WON ERNEST HEMINGWAY THE NOBEL PRIZE FOR LITERATURE
Set in the Gulf Stream off the coast of Havana, Hemingway's magnificent fable is the story of an old man, a young boy and a giant fish.
Here, in a perfectly crafted story, is a unique and timeless vision of the beauty and grief of man's challenge to the elements in which he lives. Not a single word is superfluous in this widely admired masterpiece, which once and for all established his place as one of the giants of modern literature.
Rezension:
It is unsurpassed in Hemingway's oeuvre. Every word tells and there is not a word too many
