Jack London "Martin Eden" A few years ago I read the extraordinary book "Martin Eden" by Jack London. It is the drama book full of wisdom. The storyline took place in Oakland, California, the main character is a poor sailor about twenty-one years old and a young woman from a wealthy family. They fell in love and Martin worked hard to became a writer and be a good match for her. No one publisher didn't want to buy his works and he had a very hard time. In the end, he became a famous rich writer but he lost everything that he loved and believed. This book tells us many crucial thoughts about humanity in general, about ourselves and your close people. I think that Martin was a great example of how to get what you want. And I don't like his girl, she wasn't worth him, she was despicable and narrow-minded.
