The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway begins with Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, experiencing a long streak of bad luck, having not caught a fish in 84 days. His young apprentice, Manolin, is forbidden by his parents to fish with him due to this misfortune. The story concludes with Santiago catching a huge marlin, only for it to be devoured by sharks, leaving him with just the skeleton. Despite this, Santiago regains respect and renews his bond with Manolin, embodying Hemingway's theme of enduring struggle and dignity. The final scene shows Santiago dreaming of lions, symbolizing his undying spirit.
