Published in 1915, this collection of short stories revolves around the concept of reincarnation. Darrell Standing, a murderer serving life imprisonment in San Quentin, is routinely tortured by means of a straightjacket; the agony transports him into an altered state in which he traverses interstellar space and experiences a series of past lives.
A propos de l’auteur
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.
