In 'John Barleycorn', Jack London presents us with an autobiographical account where he explores his relationship with alcohol throughout his life. From his beginnings in the taverns of Oakland to his travels around the world, London describes how alcohol, personified as John Barleycorn, became his companion and demon. This book, written shortly before his death, is an emotional and contradictory testimony of the author's experiences and adventures, marked by his excesses and his struggle against addiction.
John Griffith London, better known as Jack London, was an American novelist, journalist and activist. A pioneer of commercial fiction and American magazines, he was one of the first American authors to become an international celebrity and earn a large fortune from writing.
