Exposure to classic literature allows readers to gain an understanding of the world and helps readers navigate the complexities of modern life. Classic Pages Book Club features classic novels and novellas published around the world since the 1800s. Everyone is welcome!
The Classic Pages Book Club selection for May is The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. The Old Man and the Sea tells the story of Santiago, an aging fisherman, and his long struggle to catch a giant marlin. Awarded a Pulitzer Prize in 1953, the novella is considered one of the best examples of resilience of the human spirit in English literature.
