This article examines the problems of recreating the psychological state of characters in the novels of American writer Jack London (1876-1916). The article analyzes London's works including "Martin Eden," "The Sea-Wolf," "White Fang," "A Daughter of the Snows," and others. The technique of revealing characters' psychological states through internal monologue, external description, nature imagery, and philosophical reflections in London's works is examined. The research reveals that human psychology is portrayed deeply and multifacetedly in London's works under extreme conditions, social contradictions, and internal struggles.
