¿The Sea-Wolf¿ is a 1904 novel by American writer Jack London. This psychological adventure story revolves around a literary critic called Humphrey van Weyden who is involved in a collision with another ship on the ocean. After being saved by the powerful sea captain Wolf Larsen, he is forced to be his unwilling subject on an unplanned nautical journey.

Autorenporträt
John Griffith Chaney, better known as Jack London (12 January 1876-22 November 1916), was an American author who pioneered the art of commercial fiction, which made him a prominent figure of the international literary arena. As a part of the radical literary group, 'The Crowd,' London projected his socialist ideas through his works. Known as a rebel in his teens, London also spent 30 days in jail for vagrancy. The experience of imprisonment motivated him to attend college to become a writer.
