His ability to capture the harsh realities of life and nature in his narratives established him as a key figure in American literature, especially within the Realism and Naturalism movements. Despite his success, London's personal life was marked by struggles with health and financial instability, yet he continued to write prolifically until his untimely death at the age of 40.London's legacy endures through his contributions to literature and his influence on subsequent generations of writers. His works, characterized by their vivid descriptions and exploration of human and animal instincts, remain widely read and studied, reflecting his enduring impact on American literary tradition.
