Story4.5 out of 5 stars 128
The Old Man and the Sea is one of Hemingway's most enduring works. Told in language of great simplicity and power, it is the story of an old Cuban fisherman, down on his luck, and his supreme ordeal, a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. Here Hemingway recasts, in strikingly contemporary style, the classic theme of courage in the face of defeat, of personal triumph won from loss.

Extraordinary reading.
Stacy Keach, who I am proud to say I've met when he was playing Ken on "Titus" is an amiable and talented individual. Reading Hemingway, he is absolutely superb. My kids were fascinated by the stories and absorbed by Mr. Keach's telling of it. Truly sublime.

Two vantage points
Earnest Hemmingway is such a household name that everybody thinks he/she must have read Hemmingway at some time or the other. Many won't admit they could have lived so long and not read Hemmingway.
It's hard to believe that there is only one voice reading these stories. Stacy Keach makes these stories come alive because of his mastery of accents and interpretation. Keach's reading makes them seem as fresh as a new day.

good stories, decent reader, terrible formatting
There is no listing of which stories are included and chapters have no titles. That is pretty apauling. Otherwise, the stories are great and the reader is good.

Amazing book
Although not my favorite, the descriptions of Africa and hunting are wonderful. The storyline was dark for me and caused me great sadness.

It's Hemingway - what's not to like
Exceptional collection of some of his short stories. Each one an example of his great writing and storytelling. Some of the authors of other books on this site should read his works first and get some lessons.

Death is in the camp
Hemingway’s prose continues to silkily draw us into the end of one character after another. The opium of the masses may be bread, but its brandy is Hemingway.

Genuine Hemingway!
Read by a dramatic master! Wonderful to imagine what the thrill of a big game hunt is like. Already know what an unfaithful wife is like.

Hemingway... Boring and uninteresting.
What disappointed you about The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories?
I thought I would try Hemingway because of his reputation. However, I recently watched his bio' on U-tube and found I did not much like him. He is rated the best writer since Shakspear, I guess it's a matter of taste!
What does Stacy Keach bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I like Stacy
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories?
