Résumé : |
The Old Man and the Sea An old fisherman, Santiago, has a long period of bad lack in his fishing, not having taken a fish for eighty- four days. A boy has been helping him but his parents forbid him to go out with the old man, so he is alone when he goes out early one morning into the Gulf Stream where it moves above the Island of Cuba.
Near noon he hooks a giant marlin which pulls his boat to the north and the east for two days and nights. He hangs on to the heavy line, matching his strength and endurance against that of the fish.
On the third day he brings the marlin to the surface and kills it with his harpoon; he lashes it alongside his boat, hoists his small sail and begins his long journey back. Sharks come to rip away the marlin’s flesh and he tries to figh them off, clubbing and stabbing them and smashing his oars and the tiller of the boat. When he gets back to harbour there is nothing left but the head, the skeleton and the tail of the marlin. He beaches his boat, leaving the fish’s Skelton still lashes to it. He reaches his hut, exhausted.
The boy comes in the morning and despite the old man’s bad luck is anxious to get fishing with him again. The boy will bring him luck and will learn much from him…
