Martin Eden

Martin Eden is a novel about dreams and success by the distinguished American writer Jack London. A simple sailor, easily recognizable as the author himself, embarks on a long, arduous journey to literary immortality.
Having found himself in high society by chance, Martin Eden is doubly happy and surprised: by the creative gift that has awakened in him, and by the divine image of the young Ruth Morse (“a fragile golden flower”), so different from all the people he had known before... From now on, two goals are relentlessly before him: the fame of a writer and the possession of his beloved woman.
But dreams are unpredictable and treacherous: it is unknown when they will come true and whether it will bring long-awaited joy...
