Shattered by tropical disease and a gruelling voyage across the Pacific, Jack London spent many of the last months of his life writing in Hawaii. His search for untouched civilizations had revealed cruelty and ignorance beside startling beauty, a flawed paradise. If you know London primarily through novels like White Fang, these stories will provide a new perspective. Full of intriguing characters and snippets of pidgin, they also highlight London's concern with social issues. źródło opisu: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/16989/tales-of-the-pacific/ źródło okładki: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/16989/tales-of-the-pacific/
