Old Man and the Sea
Within the beginning of the Old Man and the Sea it shows an old man that has had a very hard life and isn’t getting any better. There is a young boy that helps the old man with his chores and get through every day, the boy loves the old man as if he was his grandfather and seems like he would do anything for him. It describes every detail of the old man so you can get a mental image of him.
The old man knew he was going out far and he left the smell of land behind….
This was my favorite quote because he knows what he is doing and yet it seems to me that he may no come back or not want to. He may just want to go out and catch his last fish for his own satisfaction. He knows he has to come back for the boy though.
