| Summary | "Martin Eden: romanzo" by Jack London is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows the life of the titular character, Martin Eden, a struggling young man from a working-class background who aspires to become a successful writer and be accepted in the upper echelons of society. The story explores themes such as social class, ambition, and the pursuit of self-identity, set against the backdrop of the American literary scene. The opening of the novel introduces Martin Eden as he navigates a world far removed from his own humble origins, characterized by discomfort and clumsiness in a wealthy social setting. Accompanied by his friend Arturo, Martin feels inadequate and out of place among the refined surroundings, showcasing his hesitance and lack of social grace. As he encounters and becomes infatuated with Ruth, Arturo's sister, Martin experiences a mix of admiration and desire to elevate himself, leading him to yearn for intellectual and social improvement. This struggle between his origins and aspirations is highlighted through his interactions with Ruth and the book titles he discovers, revealing his deep longing to bridge the gap between his past and a more promising future.
