A story of an undefeated Man

It's first time that I was reading Hemingway. Nobody really suggested me this book. I just found out it here only, in the Flipkart. I like to roam around in the Book section, cruise through all those lovely and tempting books.

So, I won't tell you the details as it is a short story. Character detailing is what makes Hemingway such a class apart. At times, you'll love the old man and his self-contradictory remarks.

If you have some free time daily (it doesn't matter really), maybe while trav...

Physical quality of the book

This is a review of the physical quality of the book rather than the reading matter presented in the book itself. A review of this book can be found anywhere online. But if you are planning to order this copy, and if you're a bibliophile like me, then you'd want to know about the physical quality of the book you are going to get your hands on.

So I bought the old man and the sea published by Arrow books. the one with the huge tidal wave on the cover, 'Ernest Hemingway' in blue at the top an...

Brilliant

I am not going to write anything about the content, as even thinking about that is idiotic. The printing of the book is very good with large enough font. Though not mentioned, it is an unedited and unabridged edition.

Totally worth the money

This books needs no introduction. One of the last work of the author Ernest Hemmingway, this book is the reason he won the Pulitzer Prize. I'd recommend you guys to give this book a try considering it is a novella (kind of a long short story in a way).

Coming to the book itself, it's good. The cover is of a glossy finish which will help it to look new for long. The quality of the pages is fine. And finally considering I got this 20 Rs lower than the MRP, I really don't see myself losing any...
