Before Adam

Exploring the yearning for a primitive existence, the protagonist adopts the identity of an early hominid amidst the 'Cave People', 'Fire People', and 'Tree People'. Set against the backdrop of human evolution, the novel delves into themes of simplicity and the complexities of modern life. Jack London, a notable figure in early science fiction and a member of the radical literary group "The Crowd," reflects on humanity's past in this thought-provoking work. The book is now available in a modern edition with a new biography of the author.
