«La quimera del oro» is a collection of adventure stories by Jack London, published by Ediciones Gaviota in paperback, with 408 pages, in Spanish.
Set in the Alaska of the gold rush, these stories follow men crossing frozen landscapes in search of wealth. The search for gold becomes a metaphor for the human aspiration to happiness, for the determination to find one's own destiny, and also for the frustration that often accompanies that determination.
It belongs to the Trébol de oro / Novelas collection from Ediciones Gaviota, in its first edition. Translation by María Luisa Giménez Gracia and illustrations by Javier Ramos Toral. Original title: The Gold-Hunters of the North.
Aimed at readers aged 16 and over, it fits within young adult literature and the taste for classic adventure narrative.
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.
