The Old Man and the Sea was written by Ernest Hemingway. Some people may think it is a very basic book or easy reading. The book had deeper meaning and a lot depth.

Or is it more? -You think too much‚ old man‚ he said aloud

Analysis of the Old Man and the Sea Under close inspection‚ people have had a hard time agreeing what to make of Santiago ’s adventure in Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea.
