Hemingway and Joe DiMaggio

From Magill: " For eighty four days, old Santiago had not

caught a single fish .. " The boy , Manolin, loved the old

fisherman and pitied him. "

" Each evening he came in empty handed. They would talk

about the fish they had taken in luckier times or about American

baseball and THE GREAT DIMAGGIO .. "

At night Santiago dreamed of the lions...

Ernest Hemingway - " The Old Man and the Sea "


RIP - Joe DiMaggio
