In eighty-four days he was unable to catch anything. Now the old Santiago feels like he's been struck by a curse. Only the solidarity of the young Manolo and the legendary example of Joe di Maggio, the unbeatable baseball player, will allow him to find the strength to go back fishing in the sea again to mark a symbolic and new initiation. In the desperate hunt for a huge swordfish, and in a fight against the sharks snatching his prey piece by piece, Santiago establishes a true brotherhood with the irrepressible forces of nature and, above all, he finds within himself the sign and presence of his own courage, the justification of a lifetime.

Largely autobiographical, the novel tells the story of a cosmopolitan group of young expatriates, with their stormy existential and sentimental anxieties. Between sleepless nights spent discussing and getting drunk, in the cafés of Montparnasse or in the arenas of Pamplona, ??the protagonists seek stronger emotions, which stun them and drive away the sense of impending nothingness. Published in 1926, The sun also rises consecrated its twenty-seven-year-old author among the most important American writers of the "lost generation" thanks to the dry and essential style with which he manages to bare the soul of his characters and to give them life.
