The Old Man And The Sea - Ernest Hemingway

I purchased this book for high school and had vague memories of it. Since I've heard it described as a "must read" for men on the basis of its inherent "masculine themes".

I have to admit I found myself a bit bored with it. I know Hemingway is considered a great of the 20th Century and 'A Farewell To Arms' was a great read back in the early 2000s for me.

In the end, I know I was told this book had much to say to me, but I either didn't hear it or I am too dumb to get it. I'd consider the previous book I just read a better examination of men.
