One of the reasons for this endeavour is Ruth Morse, with whom he has fallen in love.

Martin Eden is a 1909 novel by American author Jack London about a young proletarian autodidact struggling to become a writer. It was first serialized in The Pacific Monthly magazine from September 1908 to September 1909 and then published in book form by Macmillan in September 1909. - Eden represents writers' frustration with publishers by speculating that when he mails off a manuscript, a "cunning arrangement of cogs" immediately puts it in a new envelope and returns it automatically with a rejection slip.

"Martin Eden", pubblicato in un primo tempo a puntate, dal 1908 al 1909, fu poi pubblicato come libro nel 1909. Il protagonista, un giovane marinaio, si lancia nel mondo della cultura quasi come in una guerra, spinto da un amore idealizzato. Lo studio indefesso, la spinta alla creazione letteraria, le numerose sconfitte contro il muro del sistema editoriale e i temi filosofici e sociali dell'epoca sono i punti trainanti dell'opera. Cornice musicale: "Martin Eden" di Bill Hughes.

We speak of a mother's love, but we forget her power. Power over life. Power to give and to withhold. Generations after the breakup of the human family of Eden, the Johnfolk emphasise knowledge and innovation, the Davidfolk tradition and cohesion. But both have built hierarchical societies sustained by violence and dominated by men - and both claim to be the favoured children of a long-dead woman from Earth that all Eden knows as Gela, the mother of them all.
