When a old man and a boy are told that they can not fish with each other he choose to fish one day alone after not catching a fish for nearly 40 days a move that he will never regret, The old man finds himself being towed behind a fish longer than an the everyday pick up truck(over 18 feet)but slowly face a near infinite backdrop of wind and water he faces a large task before him to get a fish back home. In a boat not much larger than a rowboat he learns how to eat, sleep and survive when being towed by a large fish he recalls memories when he was younger, in the midst of a fight where everyone and everything is trying to survive. I rate this book ⅖ stars because it is an interesting story but doesn't have much stuff going on for most of the story
