Martin Eden is a 1909 novel by American author Jack London about a young proletarian autodidact struggling to become a writer. It was first serialized in The Pacific Monthly magazine from September 1908 to September 1909 and then published in book form by Macmillan in September 1909. - Eden represents writers' frustration with publishers by speculating that when he mails off a manuscript, a "cunning arrangement of cogs" immediately puts it in a new envelope and returns it automatically with a rejection slip.

Martin Eden è un rozzo marinaio che salva la vita del giovane Arthur, rampollo di una ricca famiglia, e viene quindi accolto in casa sua. Qui conosce la sorella di Arthur, Ruth, che diventa per lui un’ossessione amorosa e un simbolo della società colta ed elegante verso la quale vorrebbe elevarsi. Un destino inaspettato ma fortemente perseguito lo porterà a diventare scrittore e a scoprire, amaramente, che non sempre la meta vale il viaggio.

Pubblicato nel 1909, "Martin Eden", grande classico della letteratura americana, è considerato il miglior romanzo di Jack London (San Francisco, 1876 - Glen Ellen, 1916). La trama, fortemente autobiografica, si sviluppa intorno alla figura del giovane Martin, un marinaio di Oackland che, per un caso fortuito, si trova a salvare da una rissa il fratello di Ruth Morse, una ragazza dell'alta borghesia di San Francisco che per Martin diventerà un'autentica ossessione amorosa.

"Martin Eden", pubblicato in un primo tempo a puntate, dal 1908 al 1909, fu poi pubblicato come libro nel 1909. Il protagonista, un giovane marinaio, si lancia nel mondo della cultura quasi come in una guerra, spinto da un amore idealizzato. Lo studio indefesso, la spinta alla creazione letteraria, le numerose sconfitte contro il muro del sistema editoriale e i temi filosofici e sociali dell'epoca sono i punti trainanti dell'opera. Cornice musicale: "Martin Eden" di Bill Hughes.
