Trade Review
"This lively, diverse collection of essays on Jack London's works . . . will make an important contribution to the study of this powerful, strange, baffling, exasperating writer."—Joseph R. McElrath, Jr., Florida State University
"Representing new directions in London studies, these essays reach beyond traditional versions of realism and naturalism in discussing London, moving away from standard biographical readings with contemporary and diverse theoretical approaches. . . . An important contribution to the study and appreciation of one of America's most popular, yet often misunderstood, writers."—Choice
