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.

MEDIA REVIEWS
'A quite wonderful example of narrative art. The writing is as taut,and at the same time as lithe and cunningly played out,as the line on which the old man plays the fish'- Guardian
'The best story Hemingway has written... no page of this beautiful master-work could have been done better or differently'- Sunday Times
