 Join me and my co-hosts every Saturday at 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. Pacific for cartoons and movies at the 50th Street Studio Twitch Channel. See you there Greetings everybody The Old Man in the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. This is certainly the first Hemingway that I've reviewed I think it's the first Hemingway novel that I've read Having grown up in the late 20th century. I am of course familiar with the idea behind the story of the Old Man in the Sea The title says it an old man who goes out to sea fishing. I Remember seeing movie versions when I was younger didn't remember much about them And I certainly never read the book and I have to tell you that the writing is excellent It is amazingly excellent The one thing I can say about it is that the writing is just damn good It didn't end the way I expected it to I expected there to be a tear-jerking tragedy after all that struggle and everything But there wasn't I'm glad I read it. I encourage everybody else to read it Thumbs up That's it for this week Please come back again next week and please become a sponsor follow the links on screen and in the description below You can pledge a monthly amount or a small one-time amount and please subscribe to this channel.
