Published in 1902, this was London’s first novel. It features a strong female character, Frona Welse, a wealthy young Stanford graduate who turns her back on society and forges a new life for herself in the wilds of the Yukon. The book failed at the time, due to the public’s inability to connect with a female character who was neither atop a pedestal nor in the kitchen.

Circa l’autore
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.
