“Martin Eden” is the novel by the outstanding American writer Jack London about dreams and success. A simple sailor, in whom you can easily recognize the author himself, goes through a long, full of hardship path toward literary immortality… By some twist of fate finding himself in high society, Martin Eden becomes doubly happy and amazed—both by the awakening of his creative talent and by the divine appearance of the young Ruth Morse (“a fragile golden flower”), so unlike all the people he had known before… From now on two goals stand before him relentlessly: fame as a writer and possessing the woman he loves.
But dreams are unpredictable and treacherous: no one knows when they will come true, and whether that will bring the long-awaited joy…
