Adventure in the Klondike about a man and his Alsatian sled dog. After being kidnapped from his California home, Alsatian dog Buck is bought by John Thornton for the mail run, and to become the latter's close companion through many adventures together. Despite being devoted to Thornton, Buck also feels the call of the wild and runs with a wolf pack, mating with one of the pack. Buck returns to Thornton but, upon the latter's death at the hands of Indians when gold prospecting, the dog returns to run wild with the pack, becoming a creature of legend to the Indians.
Well. I think, the book is really great.
ReplyDeleteJack London tried to describe the life in its real way. Of course, we can' find in this book the thoughts of the dog, but the book teach us the real life, not in a big comfortable flat, but life, which consists of fighting with nature. We don't know what is it, because we got used to comfort, tv and nice food. But what's there? out of the city?
"The call of the wild" demonstrates it to us.
