Jack London
Martin Eden
Interesting story about a working man's thirst for knowledge colliding with the world of the privileged well educated and monied. The sacrifices he makes in his endeavours are starkly contrasted with the ease of education of his infatuation. There is a love story entwined as the foil to the points being made. Interesting and too. Excellent read that I couldn't stop despite having another few on the go at the same time.
