"Cliffsnotes Hemingway's the Old Man and the Sea" are decent, but at times very long, but that is because of the detail. If you need to understand the symbolism, then these CliffsNotes are a must! As always, you should read the CliffsNotes AFTER you have read "The Old Man and the Sea." I recommmend.

This book came in very handy after my 9th grader read Hemingway's novel. I used it to quiz him prior to the completion of his "book report" project for his Honors' English class.

It's cliff notes. They work. I think a person should use it as an additional tool towards understanding some of the writers intentions in the book and not relying on the cliff notes to replace reading the book. This is a wonderful story, written in a way that I could not put it down after about the first few pages. It is an easy read and a small book and you would miss out on a lot if you use the cliff notes incorrectly but as far as cliff notes go this one was very helpful.

I think that these cliff notes realy helped me in my report. They made everything clear when after I read the book. I bought a used edition and it was clean and nice. I really think that whoever needs cliff notes at a low price should come her to buy them!! Besides, this is a really good book!!
