Martin Eden - Jack London

Although I am frustrated at the beginning with a loving dragon like Oblomov and the taste of classical exaggerated intensity of love, after three hundreds, this situation has moved to accompany the flow, a section of life.

At the same time the character's maturity and noticing some things, the book has really become one of Jack London's best characters. It is inevitable that I read the book in Martin Eden, which is regarded as an autobiographical novel. It is good to grow with the character, to mature and observe the change of viewpoint to the events. This kind of look on Jack London's life's points is really an interesting experience. It is a good experience to continue with the supports that you find especially in the face of the challenges of your life and the solutions you offer yourself. The hardships of those who lived in America in those days can not be compared with ours, of course, but it seems that there is a world somewhat similar when it comes to the day. Of course there is a big difference. It is much different now that the love of those times or the name of the modern time deceived people and the love. We think that we live beautifully with materialism and formalism added to our superficiality in our small world that we thought we were alive. Especially in the end, the desire to escape from the tremendous chaos of existence and the consequences that we can call the shooter are among the books to be read. Good reading.
