Sea
The Sea-Wolf
Read it in the Library After Dark Or read it as plain textA poet is press-ganged aboard a brutal sealing ship and must survive both its captain’s philosophy and the ocean itself, which cares for neither of them equally. London used the sea to strip away every social convention his soft, civilised passenger had relied on. Only the truly self-reliant, this book argues, come back from an experience like that unchanged for the better.
