"Moon-Face, and Other Stories" by Jack London is a gathering of tales that digs into the shadows of human feelings. Imagine getting so annoyed by someone's happiness that you secretly plot against them; that's the start of one story, where the main character can't stand another man's joyful laugh and it pushes him towards thoughts of dark actions. It's a set of fictional stories that hint at suspense and the kind of internal battles we face when our emotions take over, exploring uncomfortable truths about how people treat each other and what goes on in their minds.
