In a Far Country" by Jack London tells the story of two men, Carter Weatherbee and Percy Cuthfert, who, ill-prepared for the harsh conditions of the Yukon, find themselves trapped in a remote cabin during the winter. Despite their differing backgrounds-Weatherbee being a disgruntled clerk seeking adventure and Cuthfert a gentleman of leisure-the extreme isolation and brutal environment force them to rely on each other for survival. However, as the winter progresses, their incompatibility and the strain of confinement lead to mounting tensions and a breakdown in civility. Their situation deteriorates further when they begin to hallucinate, seeing visions of the society they left behind, which exacerbates their despair.

I’ve been a Jack London fan since my father read to me his short stories at a very young age.

I'm from Oakland CA, and have visited Jack London Square many times. Somehow, I never equated him and his wonderful stories of the Great White North with Oakland. This is great to hear!

Jack London sure had a crush on the so-called "teutonic" race. I'm starting to see him in a different light than when i was young and stupid.

You don’t need to capitalize the word “to” in the middle of a sentence, and it is spelled “too”. Two, to, too. These are homonyms, words that sound alike but with different meanings and spelling. Like the words “boarder” and “border”. The way you spelled it refers to a person who pays rent for a room and meals in a home, usually occupied by multiple people. Border is the political lines we humans delineate our countries with.

How can this reader pronounce ``tow'' like ``Tao;'' rhyming it with ``cow?!'' Any adult knows how to say ``tow truck'' and would know how to read this. Must be AI. And it said ``rebel'' as if it was being used as a noun, when using it as a verb, when the accent is then on the second syllable.
