The Sea Wolf

When the San Francisco ferry called Martinez collides with another ship in the fog and sinks, Humphrey Van Weyden, an intellectual and well-known literary critic, is one of the “lucky” survivors, set adrift in the Bay. He is eventually found by “Wolf” Larsen, the brutal and cynical sea captain of a seal-hunting schooner called the Ghost.

From then on, things will turn increasingly difficult and chaotic for Humphrey, especially when “Wolf” Larsen only lives for survival and pleasure. He rules over his ship terrorizing the crew, and has come to despise all human life. Larsen forces him to become a cabin attendant, do menial work, and learn to fight to protect himself from the brutal crew.
