Synopsis "Martin Iden (in Russian)"

"Martin Iden" - roman vydajushhegosja amerikanskogo pisatelja Dzheka Londona o mechte i uspehe. Prostoj morjak, v kotorom legko uznat' samogo avtora, prohodit dlinnyj, polnyj lishenij put' k literaturnomu bessmertiju... Voleju sluchaja okazavshijsja v svetskom obshhestve, Martin Iden vdvojne schastliv i udivlen: i probudivshimsja v nem tvorcheskim darom, i bozhestvennym obrazom junoj Rufi Morz ("hrupkij zolotistyj cvetok"), tak ne pohozhej na vseh ljudej, kotoryh on znal prezhde... Otnyne dve celi neotstupno stojat pered nim: slava pisatelja i obladanie ljubimoj zhenshhinoj. No mechty nepredskazuemy i kovarny: neizvestno, kogda oni sbudutsja i prineset li jeto dolgozhdannuju radost'... Pod vlijaniem ljubvi, blizkoj k pokloneniju, Martin izmenjaetsja vneshne i vnutrenne, othodit ot ljudej svoego kruga i... postepenno ponimaet nichtozhnost' i merzost' mira svoej ljubimoj. S illjustracijami.

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.
