Miller is a famous French writer in the19th century. Born in a peasant family, he studied painting with others when he was young.

Forced by life, he had to leave Paris to live in the country. In the countryside, he still failed to get rid of poverty, but the beautiful nature, simple farmers and farm life aroused the painter's creative passion. He endured all difficulties and persisted in his creation, resulting in many famous works, such as The Sower.

Jack London was born in a poor family, but he was ambitious, designed a great future for himself, became a great writer, and transformed society with a pen.

The works of Darwin, Marx and Nietzsche taught him to think. Shakespeare, Goethe, Balzac and other works taught him to write. He began to write a manuscript, but he was rejected again and again.
But he was not discouraged. If life is difficult, you can live by pawning and squeeze time to write.

Later, he became a great writer with many masterpieces.
