To Build a Fire is my favourite short story.
Jack London describes the peregrination of a young man -an Everyman- ignoring the warnings of seasoned prospectors never to travel alone in the Alaskan wilderness during severe cold.
A story about the struggle of a man versus nature, about humility and respect. A fantastic story to read and read again.
