The Old Man and The Sea
by Ernest Hemingway
This one's a short but powerful tale of an aging Cuban fisherman who's life is the daily grind of going out to sea and trying to catch enough to pay the bills. One day something unusual happens--hence the story. It's a conflict that takes it's time to play out and in the process I felt like I really got to share in the life of the old man. Definitely a tale worth checking out.
