Tomorrow is going to be the seventh anniversary of the death of Gregorio Fuentes. Gregorio Fuentes was accredited by many as being the inspiration for the character of Santiago, the protagonist of Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea”, even though Hemingway himself stated that the character of his book resembled no one in particular. Furthermore it is known that while writing his book the American writer went fishing with another Cuban fisherman: Carlos Gutierez.
