O ovoj e-knjizi
Jack London's Before Adam is a novel written in the early 20th century that explores themes of evolution and ancestral memory through the perspective of a unique narrator who vividly dreams of prehistoric life. The story delves into the instinctual existence and primal fears of early humanity. The novel begins with the protagonist, Big-Tooth, reflecting on his childhood experiences. Through his dreams, he is transported back to the Mid-Pleistocene epoch, where he lives among his primitive ancestors, facing fear and adventure. His dreams are filled with profound terror and a longing for connection, setting him apart from others. He feels a strong disconnection between the dream world, populated by beings of a distant past, and his waking life. Through Big-Tooth’s memories, we meet characters such as his friend Lop-Ear and the menacing Red-Eye, whose violent presence contrasts sharply with the camaraderie of the horde. Big-Tooth recounts his experiences of fear, discovery of nature, and the instinctual behaviors that define his existence. The narrative offers a vivid exploration of the struggles and instincts of early humanity, bringing the life of prehistoric times to readers in an immersive and thought-provoking way.
