Martin Eden

Novel by Jack London

Blurb

Jack London was one of the first writers to write for fictional magazines. He was also one of the first American writers to earn a living just from his writing. Martin Eden is a writer who resembles London. When Eden sent a manuscript off in the mail he thought there was no human editor at the other end. There must be a machine designed to take the papers out of one envelope and put them into another one and address it for return. This idea has made this novel a favorite with writers who can empathize with Eden.

A prova acabada da minha imensa propensão para me tornar uma escritora falhada é o quanto vivi consumida pela leitura deste livro. Cuidado! Esta edição tem um daqueles prefácios que SPOILAM CRIMINOSAMENTE e que os editores já tinham a decência de renomear para «Posfácio», com as devidas consequências sistemáticas. E quanto às críticas negativas que fizeram ao London: éle-ó-éle. Tudo que apode a obra de diverso do «muito, muito bom» é de menosprezar.
