Jack London

Are there any Jack London fans out here?

I first knew of him back in the 6th grade when I read "White Fang" (my favourite of his) and it was definitely a spiritual experience for me. So much that I've read it again and again, gaining new insight each time that I didn't have the previous times of reading it. I saw nature differently, and the animalistic side of human nature much differently also.

"Call of the Wild" is another one I love. Jack London died too young, but his books on nature, wild life and instinct have completely impacted me in way that's life changing, more admirable. Thank you!

Solarian, I've been a Jack London fan since I was a teenager. "Call of the Wild" is one of my favorites. It's good to hear that Jack's novels have impacted you in a spiritual way.

I'm happy to hear you're a fan yourself

Yes I always liked Jack London's books. White Fang....Call of the Wild....
It's nice to know he is not forgotten as a good writer even as time goes by.

I agree, Tobi! Let's not forget "Sea Wolf!"

Yes! I am fan of Jack London's work and have read quite a bit of it. I even visited a house he lived in, in Oakland, California set (aptly enough) in Jack London Square.
