"Eric Marsden, a singular young man, lives fully and freely. Jailed as a conscientious objector, involved in labor violence, attracted to strange and eccentric women, he moves from one experience to another".
Hans Otto Storm (1895–1941) was a German-American novelist and radio engineer.
He is one of many people who has been speculatively suggested to be the pseudonymous writer B. Traven.
Storm died of accidental electrocution.
