Klondike Tales
ISBN: 9780375756856 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 281 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. As a young man in the summer of 1897, Jack London joined the Klondike gold rush. From that seminal experience emerged these gripping, inimitable wilderness tales, which have endured as some of London's best and most defining work. With remarkable insight and unflinching realism, London describes the punishing adversity that awaited men in the brutal, frozen expanses of the Yukon, and the extreme tactics these adventurers and travelers adopted to survive. As Van Wyck Brooks observed, "One felt that the stories had been somehow lived-that they were not merely observed-that the author was not...

South Sea Tales
ISBN: 9780375759291 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Like the celebrated Klondike Tales, the stories that comprise South Sea Tales derive their intensity from the author's own far-flung adventures, conveying an impassioned, unsparing vision borne only of experience. The powerful tales gathered here vividly evoke the turn-of-the-century colonial Pacific and its capricious tropical landscape, while also trenchantly observing the delicate interplay between imperialism and the exotic. And as Tony Horwitz asserts in his Introduction, "When London's stories click, we are utterly there, at the edge of the world and the limit of human...
