Martin Eden

by

No wolves here 🐺, just a tragic story of a former sailor who seeks to educate himself and realize his dream of becoming an author.
"Martin Eden" is Jack London's masterpiece. It is among the best naturalist novels ever published, on par with the best of Emile Zola. It is a powerful social commentary on the struggles of the working class and the perils of individualism.
If you think Jack London is just for kids, think again. This book is a classic, and for very good reason.
