we had our class outside! it was really fun and i was happy i came to ICU:)
we talked about the 3B's of the old man and the sea.
i had read about Hemingway's life but i didn't take notes so i had forgotten most of what i read.
i also forgot to reserch the historical backgrounds.
then we got in groups and talked about the book.
Hemingway hadn't written a popular book for such a long time and he finally succeeded by writing this book.
However, many people in CB sais that the book isn't interesting until you compare Hemingway's life and thoughts with the story.
so it made me wonder why the book became popular at the time it was published. since the story itself isn't so interesting and it is impossible for people at the time to compare the story with the author, why did people want the book??
..weird:S
