About the Book

To decipher America (With original 33,190 word essay by Jonah Raskin about Jack London life and work). By the hands of Jonah Raskin, this well-known professor-intellectual-journalist-writer-gadfly, who brings us an original, profound, dense and tense original, 33,190 word essay, let us search in Jack London, that exacerbated individualist who longed for fraternity and justice, the DNA of America that exists and, in its mutation, the DNA of a desired America.Many people say that it has always been like this and that's why it will continue to be so forever.I prefer and want to believe it does not. Knowledge, ethics and rationality advance the path of the human species, despite the powerful retrograde forces that threaten us every day. These retrograde forces are noisy, experienced, aggressive and frightening, more than anything else, but it is precisely the observation of their attitudes, motives and objectives that accelerates the construction of a critical mass within terrestrial humanity, which increasingly perceives that it does not make sense to continue this way, that a much better reality is not only desirable, but also perfectly possible. This critical mass grows with each new great absurdity, in the face of each renewed tragedy, and spreads through the simplest and most effective mechanism, which is mouth-to-mouth communication among the people of the earth. America, what is America after all?Hiroshima and Nagasaki? The murder of Abraham Lincoln? The Kennedy assassination? The murder of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? The murder of John Lennon? That strange September the 11th? Baghdad? Tripoli? Kabul? Bogotá? The continued coup in Brazil, with the Brazilian president making an official visit to the Central Intelligence Agency, whether to thank them for the support in the campaign or to ask for help to approve more atrocities? Does America want to continue this? We know it does not! The vast majority of American citizens dream of peace, freedom, prosperity, social justice, respect for people and nations. By the hands of Jonah Raskin, this well-known professor-intellectual-journalist-writer-gadfly, who brings us an original, profound, dense and tense essay, let us search in Jack London, that exacerbated individualist who longed for fraternity and justice, the DNA of America that exists and, in its mutation, the DNA of a desired America. Jack London: The Man and the Myth, The Legend and the Writer: An Essay in Two Parts, an original work by Jonah Raskin is an impressive dive into the world of Jack London. I mean deep in the bowels and deep in the soul of America, from which it is impossible to disassociate Jack and Jonah. For those who wish to decipher America but still do not know well the work of this archetypal writer, Jack London, we have added three of his most influential novels: The Call of the Wild, The Iron Heel and John Barleycorn.The adventurous and unpredictable life of Jonah Raskin, his books and other works, you find with extreme abundance and great ease in the search engines of the Internet. Let's decipher America!Good reading!Emilio Jose Lemos de Lima
