Answer:

Very simple language.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ernest Hemingway wrote this famous little novel about Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, beaten down by life, but not yet resigned to letting go of it. Though this novel, like it is most characteristic of Hemingway, is written in a very simple, direct and virile style, the depth of the story is heart wrenching and undoubtedly it is one of the most beautiful pieces of literature of the 20th century.

Hemingway is famous for this. Sometimes he could write entire passages with no words larger than 2 syllables.
