Paper Summary:

The writer of this paper takes the reader on a journey through the story and develops a detailed overview of Santiago's personality and place in the world, as he knew it. In addition this paper discusses the author's life and compares it to the life of the old man himself.

From the Paper:

The struggles and ideas in the story parallel some of the things we already know about Hemingway's personality. He was a loner and a bit rough around the edges, just like Santiago is. He was also the type of writer who would focus so intently on a story he was constructing that he shut out the world in his battle to get it right. This may be illustrative of the struggle Santiago has with the fish. When he brings it back as nothing but a skeleton it is a reflection of the way Hemingway may have felt after finishing each project.
