Autorenporträt

Jack London (1876-1916) was a pioneer, novelist, journalist and social activist. London was one of the first American authors to become an international celebrity thanks to his pioneering work in commercial fiction and magazines. Additionally he is accredited as a major innovator in the genre we now know as science fiction. Growing up in a working class background and spending several years homeless, he was a passionate fighter for workers' rights, socialism, unionisation and animal rights. He would go on to be one of the highest paid authors in America thanks to his classics such as 'Call of the Wild', 'White fang' and 'Sea Wolf'.
