Based on the life and imprisonment of Jack London’s friend Ed Morrell, this is one of the author’s most complex and original works. As Lorenzo Carcaterra argues in his Introduction, The Star Rover is “written with energy and force, brilliantly marching between the netherworlds of brutality and beauty.”\n\n\n\nThis Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the text of the first American edition, published in 1915.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eProduct image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Random House Publishing Group, 2003","offers":[{"title":"The Star Rover \/ Very Good","offer_id":54064781820196,"sku":"9780812970043VG","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9951\/4148\/files\/11998603482477.jpg?v=1779987767","url":"https:\/\/brookingsbooks.com\/products\/9780812970043","provider":"Brookings Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
