London’s socialist temperament leaps from the pages in this 1908 dystopian novel which begins by alerting the reader that the two main characters will, by the end of the story, be executed. In this portrait of the future, the U.S. is ruled by the Brotherhood of Man, an Oligarchy, and revolts amongst the squashed are imminent.

Über den Autor
Jack London (1876-1916) was born in San Francisco, the illegitimate son of a music teacher whose lover spurned her after she refused an abortion. His writings dealt with his social activism and care for the worker. Largely self-educated, London became a sailor, a hobo, a gold miner, and a socialist—all of which would find their way into his fiction.
