American writer Jack London (1876-1916) lived a short but eventful life. He visited almost every part of North America, experienced the frosts of Alaska and the scorching sun of the Solomon Islands. In his work, the writer addresses the theme of the indomitable human spirit and love of life. Folio Publishing House has published Jack London's White Tooth, Hearts of Three, Martin Eden, Daughter of the Snows, Valley of the Moon, Moonlight, Little Housewife, and Interstellar Traveler.
In the story "Green Snake, or Alcohol Memories" Jack London openly mentions his early acquaintance with alcohol and deeply analyzes the reasons for its use, describes the effects of intoxicants on the body and soul. The author repeatedly emphasizes that he was not an alcoholic by nature, but due to intoxicating drinks he could easily lose two dozen magnificent years that he still managed to live. He seeks to warn the Green Serpent of the worthy and best people whom he deceives into the "road of death." The writer regrets that the Green Snake was highly revered in modern society, which he directly calls "barbaric civilization", and hopes that the Green Snake will be a relic of that "dark" time.
