We will discuss in this class works of two Nobel Laureate writers, one American and once Columbian.
The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway is the story of an old fisherman’s journey, his long and lonely struggle with a fish and the sea, and his victory in defeat. Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Gabriel Garcia Marquez tells the story of the murder of Santiago Nasar by the Vicario twins.
