推荐理由🌊🌊🌊

本书阅读难度不大，却包含了很深刻的哲理。它赞颂了人类面对艰难困苦时所显示的坚不可摧的精神力量。海明威写这部作品的时间1950年～1951年，距离二战结束后不久。这一代人也被称为“迷惘的一代”，万物百废待兴。而本书的诞生，也唤醒了人们对未来斗志昂扬的热情。海明威被誉为美利坚民族的精神丰碑，他是“新闻体”小说的创始人，他精通于叙事艺术。书中对夜色下漫无边际的大海描写如”海水共月光一色”，凄美壮观。最让我印象深刻的是老人和他的破旧小艇漂浮游荡在无垠的碧海银光里，似如他断梗浮萍、孤苦伶仃的晚年光景。还有关于老人与大马林鱼缠斗时的挣扎和竭尽全力，彷如置身事内。总之，本书值得谢谢品读，特别是当你缺乏斗志、失去自我的时候
