Jack London的小说The Sea Wolf于1904年问世后随即成为畅销书。Ambrose Bierce写道：“最伟大的成就——甚至属于最伟大之列的——便是塑造了Wolf Larsen这一非凡人物……一个人在毕生之中雕琢并树立起这样一个形象，堪称奇迹。”The Sea Wolf讲述了知识分子Humphrey van Weyden在残酷与苦难中磨砺成长的故事。在渡轮于浓雾中相撞沉没后，van Weyden在海上随波漂流，最终被Wolf Larsen救起。

我真的很推崇杰克·伦敦这位伟大的美国小说家。在他的作品里我最喜欢知名度相对稍低的《海狼》，不过《白牙》和《野性的呼唤》确实精准捕捉到了那种冒险感，以及美国西拓时期的历史与氛围。
I really rate Jack London as the great American novelist. I like the lessor known Sea Wolf the best of his but White Fang and The Call of the Wild really capture a sense of adventure and the history and vibe of that period of American expansion into the West.
……人们为什么不愿面对现实呢？我们不过是具有被称为“文明”的复杂社会结构的生物动物，而文明不过是一层薄薄的虚饰。这让我想起杰克·伦敦《海狼》里我最喜欢的段落之一：“你知道吗，有时我发觉自己也希望对生活的真相视而不见，只沉浸在它的幻想与幻觉中。当然，它们是错的，大错特错，并且违背……”
…do people refuse to face Reality? We are just Biological Animals with a Complex Social Structure called "Civilization" which is but just a veneer. Reminds me of one of my favourite passages from The Sea-Wolf by Jack London; “Do you know, I sometimes catch myself wishing that I, too, were blind to the facts of life and only knew its fancies and illusions. They’re wrong, all wrong, of course, and contrary…
……（控制其他变量的情况下）。纵观历史，这种行为对许多拥有足够力量去践行它且自身无需承担实质风险的人来说，一直有着极大的吸引力。看看杰克·伦敦的《海狼》，里面对这种心态与我们自身心态之间的冲突有着绝佳的刻画。这就像是电子游戏里的 PK（player-killing）搬到了现实世界，而唯一有效的应对手段就是以更强的暴力还击。
…(controlling for other factors). This kind of behavior has had a strong appeal throughout history to many of those with the strength to carry it out without any real risk to themselves. See Jack London's "The Sea Wolf" for a great portrayal of the conflict between this mindset and our own. It's player-killing in video games in the real world and the only effective way to respond is with greater force.
哈——《白鲸》梗玩得漂亮！我想把杰克·伦敦的《海狼》也加进去——既因为书开头的撞船情节，也因为船上的生活。靠——把丹·西蒙斯的《极地恶灵》（The Terror）也加进书单吧 :)
Ha - nice Moby Dick reference! I would add Jack London's The Sea Wolf to that -- both for the collision aspect early in the book then life aboard the ship. Hell - add Dan Simmon's "The Terror" to that list too :)
