"[Jack London was] a great gobbler-up of the world, physically and intellectually, the kind of writer who went to a place and wrote his dreams into it, the kind of writer who found an Idea and spun his psyche around it."--E.L. Doctorow
Martin Eden (1909) is a novel by American writer Jack London. The book follows the tradition of the Kьnstlerroman, a narrative that traces the life and development of an artist, to tell the story of a young man not unlike London himself. Part fiction, part autobiography, Martin Eden examines the consequences of dreams and achievements, successes and failures, for a young artist struggling with fame. The novel is heavily influenced by London's socialist values, and dissects the interwoven nature of class and the arts while critiquing the individualist mentality promoted by such figures as Nietzsche.
The young Martin Eden lives in Oakland where he struggles to rise above the circumstances of his birth. Despite his impoverished background, he has hopes of becoming a successful writer, and has spent years educating himself toward that goal. A dreamer, Eden is also driven to marry Ruth Morse, a woman he loves despite their vastly different lives--he is a sailor, she comes from a bourgeois family. It soon becomes clear that his intentions to write and to marry are entirely intertwined. When he finds success, however, breaking through with publishers and with the elite literati of Oakland, he finds that Ruth's love is far from guaranteed, and that dreams rarely come to fruition. Martin Eden is a story of the American ideal, of class and identity, and of one man determined to make it, whatever the cost.
With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Jack London's Martin Eden is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Описание: Living in Oakland at the beginning of the 20th century, Martin Eden struggles to rise above his destitute, proletarian circumstances through an intense and passionate pursuit of self-education, hoping to achieve a place among the literary elite. His principal motivation is his love for Ruth Morse. Because Eden is a rough, uneducated sailor from a working-class background and the Morses are a bourgeois family, a union between them would be impossible unless and until he reached their level of wealth and refinement.

Описание: The Story Early 20th century. Martin Eden is a young Oakland sailor born in the shallows (as well as in ignorance and violence). His life is made up of adventures, travels, but also brutality and work. This is how he defends a young man in a brawl. He comes from the wealthy class and invites him to dinner to thank him. On this occasion Martin meets his sister Ruth Morse, delicate girl from a bourgeois family of which he falls in love. He decides to learn to conquer it. Little by little, first to please the girl he loves, then for real taste of study, he forges an encyclopedic culture and strives to become famous by becoming a writer. But despite the talent he thinks he has, he can not live by his pen. Ruth, who becomes his fianc e, would prefer that he find a safe situation, rather than continue writing. He finds that the bourgeoisie, which was his initial model, understands nothing about culture, only a few people like his friend Russ Brissenden actually talk to him. Following the publication of an article in a local paper in which he is presented as a socialist, what he is not, Ruth leaves. Brissenden dies while Eden has published his poem. He no longer likes to write, but suddenly he becomes a successful author. He sends to the magazines the works he had submitted previously but this time the publishers accept them and ask for more, propelling it to the top. Wanting to free himself from the invading hypocrisy, Martin Eden leaves to settle on an island of the Pacific. On the boat, having no longer any taste for anything, he lets himself slip into the sea.

Описание: Martin Eden is a 1909 novel by American author Jack London about a young proletarian autodidact struggling to become a writer. It was first serialized in The Pacific Monthly magazine from September 1908 to September 1909 and published in book form by Macmillan in September 1909. Eden represents writers' frustration with publishers by speculating that when he mails off a manuscript, a "cunning arrangement of cogs" immediately puts it in a new envelope and returns it automatically with a rejection slip. The central theme of Eden's developing artistic sensibilities places the novel in the tradition of the K nstlerroman, in which is narrated the formation and development of an artist. Eden differs from London in that Eden rejects socialism, attacking it as "slave morality," and relies on a Nietzschean individualism. In a note to Upton Sinclair, London wrote, "One of my motifs, in this book, was an attack on individualism (in the person of the hero). I must have bungled, for not a single reviewer has discovered it."
