Portrait of Jack London

Jack London, one of America's most adventurous voices, captured the raw power of nature and the resilience of the human spirit in his vivid storytelling. Born in 1876, he transformed his own experiences as a sailor, prospector, and wanderer into tales that pulse with authenticity and elemental struggle.

His enduring works, including classics like *The Call of the Wild* and *White Fang*, explore survival, instinct, and the thin line between civilisation and the wild. London's writing remains both thrilling and thought-provoking, offering readers a timeless journey into the heart of adventure and the depths of human endurance.

  • Reino de Cordelia S.L. Encender una hoguera

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisPocos relatos resumen con tanta perfección el mundo aventurero y salvaje de Jack London como Encender una hoguera. Escrito originalmente en 1902, su autor lo pulió y modificó hasta ofrecer su versión definitiva en 1907. Esta historia de un hombre y un perro que avanzan al atardecer por un bosque nevado, a sesenta grados bajo cero, guarda muchos paralelismos con Colmillo Blanco y La llamada de la selva, las dos novelas más populares de London, en las que también hay paisajes invernales, fidelidad del perro hacia el hombre, soledad y muerte. Pero aquí, además, incorpora un matiz inquietante que en ocasiones se acerca al terror. Raúl Arias transmite con sus ilustraciones la angustia y la soledad de los protagonistas, la ominosa presencia de lo salvaje, el egoísmo humano ante el acecho de la muerte y la sincera fidelidad de un perro.

    Book SynopsisEsta novela es casi la historia de una degradación. Rousseau decía del hombre que nace naturalmente bueno y se pervierte al contacto con la sociedad. London lo aplica al mundo del animal. Colmillo Blanco, el perro-lobo salvaje que no conoce más leyes que las de la naturaleza, irá agudizando sus instintos de ferocidad o violencia a imagen y semejanza de los hombres. ?Si el lobezno hubiera pensado como los hombres ?dice London?, habría calificado la vida como un voraz apetito, y el mundo como un caos gobernado por la suerte, la impiedad y el azar en un proceso sin fin.? Por fortuna, Colmillo Blanco encontró al ?señor del amor? al borde de la muerte.

Buck, el perro vigoroso que ha caído en manos de los buscadores de oro, demuestra con la devoción hacia su amo que los perros pueden ser más humanos que el hombre. Muerto su amo, seguirá la llamada del instinto, de la naturaleza ancestral y salvaje, para unirse a su hermano el lobo.

    Book SynopsisAmbientada en la vida agreste y salvaje de una frontera que trasciende su mero carácter físico para convertirse en una encarnación del conflicto entre la naturaleza y el ser humano alienado de ella, ?Colmillo Blanco? es una de las obras más célebres de Jack London (1872-1916). Reverso casi simétrico de ?La llamada de la naturaleza? ?publicada también en esta colección?, en la historia del perro salvaje que, significativamente, se degrada en su contacto con el hombre, hallamos en efecto, matizadas por la belleza de los grandes escenarios naturales y una remota esperanza de redención, las inquietudes que rigen toda la obra del autor estadounidense: el choque entre civilización y naturaleza, la perpetua pugna entre el bien y el mal, la supervivencia del más fuerte, el determinismo genético, la selección natural.

    Book SynopsisNovela publicada en 1915, ?El vagabundo de las estrellas? deja entrever dentro de la obra de Jack London (1876-1916) un cambio que su prematura muerte dejó en suspenso. La apuesta por la integridad moral del individuo frente a la moral convencional de la sociedad que impregna todas sus creaciones, deja espacio aquí a una nueva posibilidad para integrar este conflicto. Convicto de asesinato en la cárcel de San Quintín, Darrell Standing se ve sometido al castigo adicional de verse inmovilizado en una terrible camisa de fuerza. El tormento físico dará en su caso el acceso a otro plano de existencia en el cual puede recorrer sus vidas pasadas: Únicamente la carne muere y se transforma (...) el espíritu perdura y continúa construyéndose sobre sí mismo a través de encarnaciones infinitas y sucesivas en su eterno ascenso hacia la luz.

    Book SynopsisJACK LONDON (1876-1916) empieza aescribir poesía en mayo de 1897, a los veintiún años de edad. Desde entonces, el proceso lírico, mediante versos sueltos, estrofas y poemas completos, estará presente a lo largo y ancho de su carrera como novelista, ensayista y autor de relato corto. El London más ambiciosamente poético lo encontramos entre 1897 y 1899, cuando a los veintitrés años de edad, ya ha compuesto y publicado la mayoría de sus poemas. La incursión de London en la poesía no es fortuita, sino fruto de una decisión personal, como apuesta profesional, cuando, en mayo de 1897, compone el poema Effusion, que inicia su corta aunque vibrante carrera poética. En la poesía de London se advierten la diversidad y disparidad de asuntos nacidos del plano más íntimo y existencial de un joven poeta que aspira a hacer de la poesía la herramienta literaria y vocacional con la que convertirse en una figura crucial del promisorio ideal socialista de fin de siècle, puesto que London es consciente d

    Book SynopsisPart St. Bernard, part Scotch shepherd, Buck is a sturdy crossbreed canine accustomed to a comfortable life as a family dog -- until he''s seized from his pampered surroundings and shipped to Alaska to be a sled dog. There, the forbidding landscape is as harsh as life itself during the gold rush of the 1890s. Forced to function in a climate where every day is a savage struggle for survival, Buck adapts quickly. Traces of his earlier existence are obliterated and he reverts to his dormant primeval instincts, encountering danger and adventure as he becomes the leader of a wolf pack and undertakes a journey of nearly mythical proportions. Superb details, taken from Jack London''s firsthand knowledge of Alaskan frontier life, make this classic tale of endurance as gripping today as it was over a century ago.

    Book SynopsisThe Star Rover is the story of San Quentin death-row inmate Darrell Standing, who escapes the horror of prison life—and long stretches in a straitjacket—by withdrawing into vivid dreams of past lives, including incarnations as a French nobleman and an Englishman in medieval Korea. Based on the life and imprisonment of Jack London’s friend Ed Morrell, this is one of the author’s most complex and original works. As Lorenzo Carcaterra argues in his Introduction, The Star Rover is “written with energy and force, brilliantly marching between the netherworlds of brutality and beauty.”This Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the text of the first American edition, published in 1915.

    Book SynopsisThis Library of America volume of Jack London’s best-known work is filled with thrilling action, an intuitive feeling for animal life, and a sense of justice that often works itself out through violence. London enjoyed phenomenal popularity in his own time (which included the depressions of the 1890s and the beginnings of World War One), and he remains one of the most widely read of all American writers. The Call of the Wild (1903), perhaps the best novel ever written about animals, traces a dog’s sudden entry into the wild and the education necessary for his survival in the ways of the wolf pack. Like many of London’s stories, this one is inspired by the early deprivations of his own pathetically short life: the primitive conditions of life as an oyster pirate in San Francisco; the restless existence of a hobo; the isolation of a prison inmate; the exertion of a laborer in the Oakland slums; and the frustration of a failed prospector for gold in t
