Mayelana nale audiobook
Tras el choque del transbordador Martínez con un vapor en la bahía de San Francisco el crítico literario Humphrey Van Weyden sube a bordo de la fragata Fantasma, capitaneada por Lobo Larsen. Se le impide el regreso a la costa y se ve obligado a formar parte de la tripulación del barco, que se dirige a cazar focas. Muy pronto Van Weyden descubre un mundo brutal en ese microcosmos en el que gobierna y domina Lobo Larsen. Un hombre dominado por los instintos animales más brutales, que basa sus actos en el poder de la fuerza, para quien la vida de un semejante no tiene valor, pero que no obstante posee una inteligencia que le permite filosofar sobre ella y tener conciencia de la vida.
Mayelana nomlobi
One of the pioneers of 20th century American literature, Jack London specialized in tales of adventure inspired by his own experiences. London was born in San Francisco in 1876. At 14, he quit school and became an "oyster pirate," robbing oyster beds to sell his booty to the bars and restaurants in Oakland. Later, he turned on his pirate associates and joined the local Fish Patrol, resulting in some hair-raising waterfront battles. Other youthful activities included sailing on a seal-hunting ship, traveling the United States as a railroad tramp, a jail term for vagrancy and a hazardous winter in the Klondike during the 1897 gold rush. Those experiences converted him to socialism, as he educated himself through prolific reading and began to write fiction. After a struggling apprenticeship, London hit literary paydirt by combining memories of his adventures with Darwinian and Spencerian evolutionary theory, the Nietzchean concept of the "superman" and a Kipling-influenced narrative style. "The Son of the Wolf"(1900) was his first popular success, followed by 'The Call of the Wild" (1903), "The Sea-Wolf" (1904) and "White Fang" (1906). He also wrote nonfiction, including reportage of the Russo-Japanese War and Mexican revolution, as well as "The Cruise of the Snark" (1911), an account of an eventful South Pacific sea voyage with his wife, Charmian, and a rather motley crew. London's body broke down prematurely from his rugged lifestyle and hard drinking, and he died of uremic poisoning - possibly helped along by a morphine overdose - at his California ranch in 1916. Though his massive output is uneven, his best works - particularly "The Call of the Wild" and "White Fang" - have endured because of their rich subject matter and vigorous prose.
Situado en el Olimpo de los escritores de aventuras compartiendo podio con Verne, Salgari, Scott o Stevenson, Jack London tuvo el plus de ser él mismo un aventurero. De muy joven se apuntó a la Fiebre del Oro en Alaska y, aun con su fracaso –se haría rico escribiendo, no consiguiendo pepitas, ¡que manera de ir contracorriente!–, tuvo experiencias que luego impregnaron toda su obra: la impiedad de la Naturaleza, la brutalidad de los hombres, la codicia… Pero London, que llegó a las concesiones alaskeñas como un alfeñique y salió hecho un fortachón por el entreno de la actividad física, siempre centró su literatura más en los cambios que experimentan los seres humanos que en la aventura misma.
