The life of Jack London, the creator of the famous novel "Hearts of Three", was like a novel itself. He drew the plots for his works from vivid life experiences. Jack knew firsthand what is the life of a factory worker, gold digger and even a pirate - he illegally extracted oysters in the private bay of San Francisco. All these "adventures" were generated by the need, because the family London is very poor. But not only: passion for adventure future writer inherited from his mother - Flora Wellman conducted spiritualistic sessions, communicating with spirits and thirsty for quick enrichment. Jack's father was no less extravagant person: William Cheney was considered one of the most famous experts on magic and astrology in America. It is not surprising that Jack very early showed the ability to penetrate the secrets of human souls and understand the actions of others. The most exciting novels of London always bribe psychological depth, truthfulness in the portrayal of characters and... romanticism. So in the last novel of the writer - "Hearts of Three" - readers are concerned not so much with the adventures of treasure hunters Francis and Henry Morgan, but their love for the beautiful Leoncia and her reciprocal feelings. However, the bursting passion will not change these open and sincere natures, alien to tricks and not capable of betrayal. For high school age.
