Smoke Bellew

Meer over het boek

Set against the harsh backdrop of the Klondike, the narrative follows Christopher Bellew, a young man who transforms from an intellectual with weak physicality into a resilient figure known as "Smoke." As he navigates the challenges of primitive life, Bellew's journey reflects themes of self-discovery and adaptation. The story is further explored in the sequel "Smoke and Shorty." Jack London's influence as a commercial fiction writer and his evolving socialist views are also significant aspects of this tale.
