Vana mees ja meri. Aafrika rohelised mäed. Kilimanjaro lumed. Omandamine ja mitte omamine.

The story "The Old Man and the Sea" is one of the most famous and beloved works of Hemingway by readers. It brought the author the Pulitzer Prize and played a significant role in awarding him the title of Nobel laureate. It is a tale of "tragic stoicism" and courage, about how a person, even in defeat, must maintain dignity in the face of ruthless fate and loneliness. The autobiographical story "Green Hills of Africa" is one of the works that laid the foundation for the myth of "Papa Hemingway" – a daringly mad intellectual adventurer, a favorite among women, a seeker of strong sensations and new impressions. "To Have and Have Not" is the story of Harry Morgan, a simple and honest fisherman who becomes a smuggler. At the heart of the narrative is the fate of the main character who becomes a criminal. But besides that, "To Have and Have Not" is a sharply social novel centered on the conflict of poverty and wealth, those who have and those who do not, people whom poverty forces to break the law, and people enjoying life and squandering it. Who among them is more deserving of condemnation? The collection also includes the story "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" – the "visiting card" of Hemingway the storyteller.
