The Sea-Wolf by Jack London
"The Sea-Wolf" by Jack London is a psychological adventure novel published in 1904. Literary critic Humphrey Van Weyden survives a shipwreck only to be rescued by Wolf Larsen, a brutal yet brilliant sea captain who forces him into servitude aboard a seal-hunting schooner. The soft intellectual must learn to survive among a violent crew while confronting Larsen's nihilistic philosophy and physical dominance. When a young woman is rescued at sea, Van Weyden
faces new challenges protecting her from both the merciless captain and the harsh realities of life at sea. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
