Smitten with a beautiful and cultivated young woman, a bright but uncultured sailor determines to better himself in Jack London's semi-autobiographical novel. Martin Eden's painful struggles with self-education and his eventual success as a writer provide thought-provoking explorations of the nature of love, the importance of remaining true to personal aspirations rather than others' expectations, and the injustice of class divisions.
