内容概要
《老人与海》虽仅算一个中篇,却是海明威一生写作的最重要的一部书。作品讲述的是古巴的一位老渔夫在湾流中同一条巨大的马林鱼所进行的搏斗,命运在相对渺小的个人力量面前既神秘又不可战胜,但尤为重要的是老渔夫在同命运的抗争中显示出顽强不屈的硬汉子精神,虽败犹荣,从而使作品获得了丰富而深广的象征意义。1954年,海明威“因精通于叙事艺术,突出地表现在其近著《老人与海》之中;同时也因为对当代文体风格之影响”而获得诺贝尔文学奖。《非洲的青山》是海明威早年写作的一部纪实性作品,笔法精湛,叙事简洁而不枯燥,是海明威表现其大师风范的又一扛鼎之作,成就足与“虚构的作品相媲美”。这本《老人与海非洲的青山(英文版)》是“世界文学经典读本”系列之一。
《老人与海非洲的青山(英文版)》的作者是E.海明威。

章节摘录
版权页: The hawks, he thought, that come out to sea to meetthem. But he said nothing of this to the bird who could notunderstand him anyway and who would learn about thehawks soon enough. "Take a good rest, small bird," he said. "Then go in andtake your chance like any man or bird or fish." It encouraged him to talk because his back had stiffened inthe night and it hurt truly now. "Stay at my house if you like, bird," he said. "I am sorry Icannot hoist the sail and take you in with the small breezethat is rising. But I am with a friend." Just then the fish gave a sudden lurch that pulled theold man down onto the bow and would have pulled himoverboard if he had not braced himself and given some line. The bird had flown up when the line jerked and the oldman had not even seen him go. He felt the line carefully withhis right hand and noticed his hand was bleeding. "Something hurt him then," he said aloud and pulled backon the line to see if he could turn the fish. But when he wastouching the breaking point he held steady and settled backagainst the strain of the line. "You're feeling it now, fish," he said. "And so, God knows,am I." He looked around for the bird now because he would haveliked him for company. The bird was gone. You did not stay long, the man thought. But it is rougherwhere you are going until you make the shore. How did I letthe fish cut me with that one quick pull he made? I must begetting very stupid. Or perhaps I was looking at the smallbird and thinking of him. Now I will pay attention to mywork and then I must eat the tuna so that I will not have afailure of strength. "I wish the boy were here and that I had some salt." hesaid aloud. Shifting the weight of the line to his left shoulder andkneeling carefully he washed his hand in the ocean andheld it there, submerged, for more than a minute watchingthe blood trail away and the steady movement of the wateragainst his hand as the boat moved. "He has slowed much," he said. The old man would have liked to keep his hand in the saltwater longer but he was afraid of another sudden lurch bythe fish and he stood up and braced himself and held hishand up against the sun. It was only a line burn that had cuthis flesh. But it was in the working part of his hand. He knewhe would need his hands before this was over and he did notlike to be cut before it started.
