Okay, saw the movie 'The Sea Wolf,' many years ago, with Edward G Robinson, and thought the movie was excellent, and wanted to read the book. Big disappointment, movie was much better then the book. London goes on some real long writing that is hard to understand, and to be honest, boring. Skip the book, and watch the old black and white movies, with Robinson.

An oddly compelling book. I dislike the characters, but am constantly drawn back to them. It takes 'survival of the fittest' to an entirely different level. Mr. London conveys Humphery's suffering, longing, triumphs an tragidies so well, it is hard to believe it isn't real.
