"The Law of Life" is a short story by the American naturalist writer Jack London.
[2] This short story covers the last 5 hours of the old and dying Inuit chief Koskoosh.
[3] His tribe needs to travel in search of clothing and shelter so he is left to die because of his age and inability to see properly.
He accepts his fate peacefully and starts to visualize the events of his past.
The images of both great famine and times of plenty vividly come to his mind.
