Quite a fast moving, exciting read. Felt sorry for Harry Morgan as events conspired against him.

I found this one much easier and interesting to read than some of the other Hemmingway books I've read from the 1001 list in the past.
Sending to stubee as a RABCK.

Thank you every so much for this lovely surprise brunton11, much appreciated.
... Started reading this week... so hopefully get this moving along shortly.
An interesting tale by Hemingway commentating on the rich vs. poor in South Florida during the great depression in 1930’s America. The text follows the life of Harry Morgan a good man forced into a life of crime due to the economic state of the country.
I enjoyed parts of the story but found it at times a bit disjointed. I’ve since found out that this was originally published as two short stories which would explain the disjointedness.
All in all enjoyable. I’ve now read three of Hemingway’s novels – this, For Whom The Bell Tolls and Old Man From The Sea. Of the three Old Man From The Sea stands out.
I’ve given this to KT-J to read now.

Caught, thanks!
Massive apologies, I read this in 2016 and clearly forgot to journal about it!
I enjoyed this - I much preferred it to For Whom the Bell Tolls - it was much easier to read and I thought the storyline was really interesting and the characters really well drawn.
