Red Plague-Modern Classics Series 152

Jack London became one of the pioneers of "post-apocalyptic" literature with his work The Red Plague, which was published in London Magazine in England in 1912. In an age where people are dazzled by the leaps in population, science and technology, and economy, the author reminds us of the fragility of our civilization. His work strikingly reveals the speed at which cities and countryside filled with millions of people surrender to desolation. The loss of not only the population, but also knowledge, production, and even language is explained to the new humanity through the eyes of a professor who is a bridge with the old civilization. So, will the new humanity listen to this need? The sharpness of Jack London's predictions, which looks at the world of the 2010s, a hundred years after the beginning of the twentieth century in The Red Plague, makes the book, beyond being a classic, still a lively criticism for today.
