In a departure from his customary settings, Jack London (The Call of the Wild, White Fang) chose northern California and its rolling hills for the backdrop of this 1913 novel. Having grown disenchanted with the organized labor movement, two young lovers decide to leave Oakland, California, in pursuit of their American pioneer roots.
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.
