Synopsis "La Gente del Abismo (in Spanish)"

En 1902, Jack London llegó a Londres con la intención de escribir un reportaje sobre el East End, la zona este de la ciudad, donde se hizo pasar por un vagabundo, con el fin de poder penetrar en el Abismo, tal como él lo llamaba. Su curiosidad le llevó a visitar los slums, los llamados barrios pobres de la ciudad, en donde se hacinaban cientos de personas en condiciones infrahumanas, mientras que las clases acomodadas se beneficiaban de la política colonial que el Imperio llevaba a cabo en sus colonias. London descubrió la extrema pobreza, la proliferación de los sin techo que dormían en los bancos de los parques, la desesperación de los desempleados y de los enfermos sin asistencia que vivían en la más absoluta miseria.

View Author's Page
Jack London (1876-1916), pseudonym of John Griffith Chaney, is one of the great American writers of the early 20th century. His world is inspired by a very subjective interpretation of Nietzsche's philosophy and is built on the principle of survival of the fittest. Born in San Francisco, he was essentially a self-taught child who avidly read the collections of the public library. At seventeen, he embarked on his first schooner, heading to Japan. After several experiences as a sailor and vagabond -which also led to his imprisonment-, London attended Oakland High School and later, the University of California, which he had to leave due to financial problems. Like many, he suffered from gold fever until he finally turned to writing.
