    "The Scarlet Plague" by Jack London is a haunting dystopian novella first published in 1912. Set in a post-apocalyptic future, the story unfolds in the year 2073, sixty years after a devastating pandemic known as the Scarlet Plague wipes out most of humanity. Told through the perspective of an elderly survivor, James Howard Smith, the narrative recounts the collapse of civilization as he shares his memories with his grandsons, who struggle to comprehend the advanced world that once was. 
    With vivid imagery and profound social commentary, London explores themes of human fragility, the loss of knowledge, and the cyclical nature of history. This short yet powerful tale serves as a timeless reflection on the consequences of societal hubris and the enduring spirit of survival.
