Martin Eden

The most unusual novel by Jack London. The novel, who blew up the consciousness of several generations of the intelligent young men of many countries, obsessed with his almost Nietzschean idea of ​​the “strong man”, overcoming any obstacles.

Now, of course, the Nietzscheian motives of the novel have already been obsolete, but his main idea remained unchanged... A real man is never afraid of anything, never committed betrayal, is always ready to meet an enemy-and protect his beloved woman.

trite? No, but not for the not subject to the time of the heroes of Jack London.
