JACK LONDON’S MARTIN EDEN

Co-Editor

Based on the celebrated writer’s autobiographical novel, Martin Eden, “Jack London’s Martin Eden” is set in 1909 and tells the story of a poor and unschooled sailor who unexpectedly meets Ruth Morse, a magnetic young woman of means and education. Their unconventional attraction upends both lives and propels timely themes of impossible love, pursuit of the American Dream, dogged individualism, and the quest for a comfortable place in an inconstant world.
