Wikipedia page about this work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eternal_Lover Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Eternal Savage" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is a novel written in the early 20th century." The story intertwines the lives of two main characters: Nu, a caveman from the Niocene Age, who seeks to prove his worth as a hunter, and Victoria Custer, a modern American girl visiting Africa, who becomes inexplicably connected to Nu through dreams and a shared fate. This book explores themes of adventure, survival, and the clash of civilizations as it plunges readers into a thrilling prehistoric world. "At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Nu, who embarks on a dangerous hunt for a saber-tooth tiger, driven by his desire to win the affection of Nat-ul, a cavewoman he loves." Moments later, a catastrophic earthquake disrupts the Niocene landscape, trapping him in the cave. In contrast, Victoria Custer experiences eerie dreams and feelings of connection to a mysterious man during her stay with her brother in Africa. The narrative shifts between both characters as they navigate their own perilous jungles—Nu in the ancient world of beasts and Victoria in the modern jungle of societal expectations. The opening of the novel sets the stage for an epic and fantastical journey across time and existence.
