Synopsis "Martin Eden: Martin Eden (in English)"

Arguably one of Jack London's most determined characters, Martin Eden's obsessive desire to not only write but to be published is unsurpassed in contemporary literature. Falling in love out of his own class, Martin Eden pursues a career as a young writer to win the affections of Ruth Morse. A social blot onto the upper-class Morse household, Martin Eden strives to gain the class distinction he desires and by that the affections of his love - Ruth Morse. But when his efforts have produced little or no result, Ruth's mother, the matriarch of the powerful Morse industries destroys the young love and Martin Eden in the process. He is seen as crude and unrefined, but when a book sells, then another and another, Martin Eden is now the prized catch of any social gathering. Sending Ruth back now to recapture their engagement, Martin is now disillusioned by his misplaced love and his efforts to have pursued it.

View Author's Page
Jack London (1876-1916), seudónimo de John Griffith Chaney, es uno de los grandes escritores estadounidenses de los albores del siglo XX. Su mundo se inspira en una interpretación muy subjetiva de la filosofía de Nietzsche y se construye a partir del principio de lucha por la supervivencia. Nacido en San Francisco, fue esencialmente un niño autodidacta que leía con avidez los fondos de la biblioteca pública. Con diecisiete años se embarcó en su primera goleta, rumbo a Japón. Tras varias experiencias como marinero y vagabundo -razón por la que también fue encarcelado-, London acudió a la Oakland High School y, posteriormente, a la Universidad de California, que tuvo que abandonar por problemas económicos. Como muchos, sufrió la fiebre del oro hasta que, finalmente, se dedicó a la escritura.
