"Before Adam" is a novel by Jack London that delves into the concept of human evolution. The story follows a man who dreams of living the life of an early hominid, offering a unique perspective on human development. The narrative is primarily told through the eyes of the man's hominid alter ego, with the presence of the more advanced Fire People and the animal-like Tree People adding depth to the plot. The characters include the hominid's father, a love interest, and Red-Eye, a fierce "atavism" that instills fear in the Cave People. Additionally, a sabre-cat plays a significant role in the story. Notably, scholars have identified strong eugenic themes in "Before Adam," adding a thought-provoking layer to the novel. The novel is available at Standard Ebooks, Project Gutenberg, and as a public domain audiobook at LibriVox, showcasing its enduring popularity and accessibility.
