Ernest Hemingway's
Old Man of the Sea
BIMINI, Bahamas The
late American author.
Ernest Hemingway, wrote sev-
eral books connected with the
sea.
One of 'his most famous is
"Thi Old Man and the Sea".
For many years, Hemingway
made a seasonal escape to the
island of Bimini, known as the
fishing capital of the world. It
was here he met Joe Robins,
island philosopher -histo-
rian, born in North Bimini
almost 90 years ago. Many
historians feel Joe Robins is
the prototype of Santiago,
Hemingway's salty hero of
"The Old Man and the. Sea".
Hemingway used to live as
the house guest of Michael
Lerner, founder of the Lerner
Marine Laboratory of the
American Museum of Natural
History. Joe Robins was the
gardener on the estate, and it
was people like Joe to whom
Hemingway spoke most often.
"I never saw him write down
anything," Joe will tell you,
"because he kept it all in his
head, and later you saw it in
his books." Joe speaks , of
Hemingway with something
close to nostalgia,. the gleam in
his old eyes a sort of tribute to
the memory of someone who
immortalized a poor, relatively
inconsequential. old man.
Hemingway' is gone now. but
Joe Robins remains. He has
weathered two wives, 17 chil-
dren and countless grandchil-
dren. As big game fishermen
and other tourists come to
Bimini these days, Joe has
become a familiar figure on
the street, as his association
with the character in Heming-
way's book becomes more
widespread. To many people,
Joe may not be the character
Hemingway portrayed in his
story, for there are perhaps
some variations in the motiva-
.tions and general physical
characteristics of the two fig-
ures, but no one here doubts
that the soul of Joe Robins
pervades this book and other
Hemingway sea stories.
Joe is an old man with, as
Hemingway noted, "a growing
ecstasy or ordered, formal,
passionate, increasing disre-
gard for death . . .". He is a
living monument to the story
of the old man and the sea.
