📱 eBook en inglés THE GAME

"It was the game—the struggle of the men, the colorful, brutal, and fascinating game."
Joe Fleming is a clean-living young man with a bright future and a woman he loves, Genevieve. But Joe has a secret passion: he is a prize-fighter. On the eve of their wedding, Joe agrees to one final bout—one last time to play "the game." Genevieve, initially repulsed by the violence, agrees to watch the fight from a secret vantage point, hoping to understand the strange, masculine world that captivates her fiancé. What follows is a visceral, blow-by-blow account of a match that serves as a profound meditation on the animalistic nature of man and the tragic interference of fate.
The "Red Muscle" Philosophy: London applies his trademark naturalism to the sport of boxing. He describes the physical "machinery" of the fighters with scientific precision, portraying the ring not just as a sport, but as an arena where the "blood-heritage" of prehistoric ancestors resurfaces in the modern world.
A Clash of Worlds: The novella highlights the stark contrast between the "woman-world" of the home and the "man-world" of the ring. Through Genevieves eyes, the reader experiences the shocking transition from the gentle Joe she knows to the fierce, efficient athlete he becomes under the lights. It is a story about the irresistible pull of competition and the price one pays to be a champion.
