Book excerpt: How is this book unique? Font adjustments & biography included Unabridged (100% Original content) Illustrated About The House of Pride by Jack London Six powerful tales of race, class, and leprosy, The House of Pride, first published in 1912, is a collection of stories by Jack London, all of which take place in Hawaii. London traveled to Hawaii on at least three occasions, and it became the predominant setting for the writings of the second half of his career. He loved the climate and the landscape of the islands, and was fascinated by Polynesian history and culture. London also liked writing about Hawaii because the setting gave him an opportunity to explore his favorite themes of race and class.In "The House of Pride," a wealthy son of missionaries is forced to deal with the newfound discovery that a half-breed he despises is actually his half brother. In addition to his obsession with race and class issues, for whatever reason, London was fascinated by leprosy. The disease was present among the Hawaiian population during London's time. Infected persons were confined to the leper colony on Molokai, which London once visited. In his stories London displays contradictory motives toward leprosy, on the one hand striving to offer an enlightened and educated perspective on the disease, while on the other hand revelling in the depiction of its hideous effects.
