  • Summary

  • In 1951, Papa returned to the story idea hatched in 1936 about the old fisherman. The original idea had but one character. Now, however, Papa imagined a story with two characters: the old man, of course, but also the boy. He recalled the special friendship between Manolin and the old man. Even after the old man lost the big fish, he continued fishing until he could no longer bait the hook. Until then, each day, the boy would run into the La Terraza restaurant, saying, “Please, sir, one cold beer, two sardines and the newspaper for the old man. He is thirsty and hungry and he comes again, today, with no fish. How are the Yankees doing? DiMaggio?”
