CliffsNotes®: The Old Man and the Sea

Ace your class with the help of CliffsNotes® To Go for the iPhone™ and iPod touch®. The brand you trust for fast, effective, and comprehensive literature review has been reinvented for the small screen to give you anywhere, anytime access to character, theme and plot summaries and analysis; interactive quiz features; and audio CramCasts covering the great works of literature.

** As featured in Apple's 'Apps for Everything' Campaign **

In Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, you meet Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman who is down on his luck but finds himself alone and far from shore with the biggest catch of his life - an 18-foot marlin. Through the symbolism of Santiago's relationship with his young apprentice Manolin, his love of the ocean, and his struggle with (but not against) nature, The Old Man and the Sea earned Ernest Hemingway the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953.

Two distinct review modes in this app allow for a more customizable study experience.

• Prescriptive "Cram Plan," created by the experts at CliffsNotes, orders the content of the app to turn just five minutes into an effective study session

• e-Reader interface provides the app's complete content, similar to the way you'd see it in the printed CliffsNotes books

Additional features that make the most of the Multi-Touch User Interface and media capabilities of iPhone and iPod touch include:

• Multiple-choice quiz to assess your mastery of the material

• Text-highlighting to note important sections for further review

• Interactive map links character associations and profiles for quick reference

• Audio plot summaries that play in the background while you work your way through the rest of the app
