Informazioni su questo libro

Can love survive the final round? The Game by Jack London is a powerful, fast-paced novella exploring the brutal beauty of boxing and the human spirit. Centered on Joe Fleming—a working-class prizefighter—and his bride-to-be Genevieve, this story unfolds in the hours leading up to Joe's final match. What starts as a love story quickly becomes a raw and unforgettable portrayal of sacrifice, pride, and the unforgiving nature of "the game." Set against the gritty backdrop of early 20th-century America, London's prose crackles with tension, realism, and emotional intensity. This edition includes period illustrations and an insightful foreword on London's fascination with physical endurance and masculinity. "A knockout novella from one of America's fiercest literary voices." — Boxing Journal Review "Short, savage, and impossible to forget." — San Francisco Examiner Click Buy Now to step into the ring with a classic that still packs a punch.
