The main characters in Old Man and the Sea are Santiago, a fisherman and Manolin, a boy who helps him.
Three adjectives that describe Santiago are old, isolated, tough. This is because he continue to fishing though he is old and he couldn't take a fish many days.(First page)
Three adjectives that describe Manolin are young, kind, sturdy. I felt his kindness by reading page 10. He is worried about that Santiago didn't get fish eighty-seven days and he suggested to go with him. Although he can ride lucky boat which caught good fish. His suggestion wasn't good for him but he didn't care about it because he loved
old man.(page10 line12-13) Also I could understand his sturdiness because he decided by himself to go with him and suggested.
