Good Morning, People of the Page. Last night I finished Jack Londons Martin Eden, a truly remarkable novel, and I recommend it to everyone. I would say this is the best novel Ive ever read on the struggles of a writer, on the opposition and discouragement a writer faces, on the faith and stubbornness a writer must have to succeed --- and one of the best novels certainly about the spiritual and creative journey of a mind and a soul. Londons descriptions dazzle. He makes the life of the mind as exciting as any fist fight, brawl, or love scene. I have mixed feelings about Martins ultimate fate. But I respect Londons decision to end his novel the way he did. For all you struggling writers out there, I recommend the book; but do write a different ending for yourself.
