To Build a Fire This story is by American author Jack London. The story is considered a prime example of the naturalist movement and of a Man vs. Nature conflict. It is also considered to be a reflection of his own life after his experiences in the Yukon Territory. This story demonstrates negative interactions because the man has not and does not prepare him for this journey. He is not respectful of the nature he can’t control‚ and he ignores the advice of those far more experienced than he.
