He awakened many times to feel it falling on his upturned face. Day came—a gray day and no sun. It had ceased raining. The keenness of his hunger had departed.

'Love of Life, and Other Stories' is a collection of short stories by Jack London, the renowned author of the classic novel "The Call of the Wild".
