Giới thiệu về tác giả
Jack London (1876–1916) was a prolific American author, journalist, and social activist known for his adventurous and vividly portrayed works, which often reflected his own experiences and socialist beliefs. His narratives commonly merge elements of naturalism and romanticism, which made his literature resonate with both the beauty and brutality of life. London gained widespread acclaim through his novel ‘The Call of the Wild’ (1903), which illustrates the journey of a domesticated dog named Buck, reverting back to his wild instincts. Another significant work, ‘White Fang’ (1906), inversely explores the transformation of a wild wolf-dog into a domesticated animal. London’s body of work is expansive, as is captured in ‘The Works of Jack London: Novels, Short Stories, Poems, Plays, Memoirs & Essays, ‘ which offers a comprehensive view of his literary range—from the Klondike adventure ‘To Build a Fire’ to his insightful social commentary piece ‘The Iron Heel’ (1908), and more. London’s literary style is characterized by a clear, direct approach and a focus on themes of survival, individualism, and social justice, which have continued to engage readers and influence writers worldwide long after his death.
