? The year is 2073—and civilization has crumbled.

In The Scarlet Plague, Jack London offers a terrifying glimpse into a future devastated by pandemic and societal collapse. Written in 1912, this haunting novella is one of the earliest examples of post-apocalyptic fiction—eerily prophetic in its themes of global plague, the fragility of civilization, and the resilience of storytelling.

? Sixty years after the plague, only a few survivors remain.
James Smith, once a professor of English, now wanders the ruined world with his grandchildren, recounting the horrors of the Scarlet Death that wiped out most of humanity. Around them, the remnants of a once-great society fade, replaced by primitive customs, superstition, and silence.

? A stark meditation on mortality, memory, and what it means to be human.
With vivid imagery and brutal insight, The Scarlet Plague asks: What happens when progress collapses? What wisdom survives? And how quickly do we forget?
