Synopsis "Antes de Adan"

Jack London es uno de los pocos autores que escribieron para los jóvenes. Fue marinero y luchador social, participó en la ""fiebre del oro"" donde descubrió los principales motivos de sus narraciones como el conflicto entre el hombre y la naturaleza. Antes de Adán es la crónica de una experiencia antes de la historia, antes del despuntar de la civilización.

Jack London (1876-1916), pseudonym of John Griffith Chaney, is one of the great American writers of the early 20th century. His world is inspired by a very subjective interpretation of Nietzsche's philosophy and is built on the principle of survival of the fittest. Born in San Francisco, he was essentially a self-taught child who avidly read the collections of the public library. At seventeen, he embarked on his first schooner, heading to Japan. After several experiences as a sailor and vagabond -which also led to his imprisonment-, London attended Oakland High School and later, the University of California, which he had to leave due to financial problems. Like many, he suffered from gold fever until he finally turned to writing.
