  • Overview

    Seis de los mejores cuentos de uno de los maestros de la narrativa breve norteamericana.

    Aunque siempre vivió acuciado por la falta de dinero, Jack London (San Francisco, 1876 – Glen Ellen, California, 1916) llegó a ser el escritor mejor pagado de su país. No obstante, antes de convertirse en un aclamado autor, desempeñó muchos trabajos, entre los cuales cabe citar los de pescador furtivo de ostras en la bahía de San Francisco, patrullero de costas, cazador de focas o buscador de oro en la región del río Klondike. Todas estas experiencias dejaron en él una marca indeleble y se encuentran destiladas con una maestría deslumbrante en sus narraciones.

    Ambientados en las soleadas islas del Pacífico, como «El chinago» o «Koolau el Leproso», o en los territorios glaciales del Yukon, como «Ley de vida» o «Encender una hoguera», los cuentos recogidos en esta antología constituyen una muestra representativa de algunos de los temas troncales de la obra del autor, como la lucha feroz por la existencia, la insignificancia del individuo frente a la crueldad y el carácter implacable de la naturaleza o el poder del hombre blanco.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    Six of the best stories by one of the masters of American short fiction.

    Although he always lived in the grip of a lack of money, Jack London (San Francisco, 1876 – Glen Ellen, California, 1916) became the highest-paid writer in his country. However, before becoming an acclaimed author, he held many jobs, including oyster poachers in San Francisco Bay, coastal patrolman, seal hunter, and gold prospector in the Klondike River region. All these experiences left an indelible mark on him and are distilled with dazzling mastery in his narratives.

    Set in the sunny islands of the Pacific, such as "The Chinago" or "Koolau the Leper", or in the glacial territories of the Yukon, such as "Law of Life" or "Lighting a Bonfire", the stories collected in this anthology constitute a representative sample of some of the core themes of the author's work, such as the fierce struggle for existence, the insignificance of the individual in the face of the cruelty and ruthlessness of nature or the power of the white man.
