Джек Лондон (настоящее имя Джон Гриффит) – американский писатель. В юности он переменил множество случайных профессий, путешествовал и даже просидел месяц в тюрьме за бродяжничество. В северных рассказах Лондон противопоставляет цивилизации мир нетронутой природы, но, веря в благодетельную природу, не перестает преклоняться перед техническими и культурными достижениями цивилизации. В его произведениях – жизнь простая и жестокая, требующая от людей выдержки, мужества, силы воли и выносливости. Писатель поэтизирует право сильного, любуется проявлениями анархического начала в своих героях. Аудиокнига прочитана профессиональным американским актером Адамом Маскиным на английском языке.
