Tone of "The Old Man and the Sea"

The Old Man and the Sea has an informative tone. It is not very aggressive; it is a more passive book, because the author has no big point to make. If he had a big point to make, he would have had to make the book a lot more aggressive, but he was able to keep a passive tone. The author also had no need to have a persuasive tone, because he had nothing to persuade his audience about. There was also no need for an argumentative tone, because there was no argument and no point that he was trying to refute. The author has a neutral tone, because he wants people to feel everything for themselves. It also shows how good of an author he is, because he crafted his book so that people feel everything the Old Man did and love him, but the author never showed his opinions. He may have seemed a little kind about descriptions of the Old Man at times, but he may also possibly have been a little harsh at some points. It seemed like he really cared about the characters in his book, and he cultivated their backgrounds well. He was very sincere in his writing, because nothing in his book was facetious or sarcastic. He was very plainspoken in the book, and it seemed like he might be writing to the type of people that were in the book. He was also pretty serious, even though he threw in a witty remark every now and then, and he was very casual in his speech. He was very reserved and reasonable, and he wrote extremely calmly. He was kind of impersonal, but it all made the book seem that much better. The book was extremely well-written, and the tone that The Old Man and the Sea was written in just makes the book all the more intriguing and makes people want to read it just that much more.
