But I savour every page Jack London has written. Martin Eden is in my humble opinion his masterpiece, a life-changing reading, a classic of all time literature. Be it as it may, he is no doubt one of those evergreen authors, always current, unbound by time. Perhaps it’s the masterfully paced adventures, or the authenticity of intent, or the straightforward writing style, with so many layers of allegorical meaning. When I read a book written by Jack London I am always, inevitably, completely absorbed by it. What was atavism according to Jack London? This review tries to shed light on what the author really meant by it through the analysis of two of his works: the novel Before Adam, and the short story Goliath.
