What to read after Before Adam?

First published in “Everybody's Magazine” between 1906 and 1907, “Before Adam” is a novel by American writer Jack London that centres around a man who longs for the simpler life of an early hominid. Through his musings, the man adopts an alter ego belonging to the 'Cave People', a group that exists in the early days of human evolution together with the more advanced 'Fire People' and the wild 'Tree People'. John Griffith London (1876 – 1916), commonly known as Jack London, was an American journalist, social activist, and novelist. He was an early pioneer of commercial magazine fiction, becoming one of the first globally-famous celebrity writers who were able to earn a large amount of money from their writing. London is famous for his contributions to early science fiction and also notably belonged to "The Crowd", a literary group an Francisco known for its radical members and ideas. Other notable works by this author include: “Martin Eden” (1909), “The Kempton-Wace Letters” (1903), and “The Call of the Wild” (1903). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
