"Hain't fergot the hooch we-uns made on the Tanana, hevyeh？""Well, I guess yes. Boys, it would have done your hearts good to seethat whole tribe fighting drunk——and all because of a glorious ferment ofsugar and sour dough.

内容概要

杰克·伦敦(1876-1916年)，美国20世纪著名的现实主义作家，是美国文学史上最重要的作家之一。出生于美国加利福尼亚旧金山的一个破产农民家庭。从1900年起，他连续发表了许多中短篇小说，因其作品大都带有浓厚的社会主义色彩，因此有人认为他是宣扬社会主义的作家，但也有人认为他是表现个人主义与民众哲学的自然主义作家。他的作品不仅在美国本土广为流传，而且受到世界各国人民的欢迎，是最受中国读者欢迎的外国作家之一。杰克·伦敦一生著述颇丰，其中最著名的有《马丁·伊登》、《野性的呼唤》、《雪虎》、《热爱生命》等。
