The Call of the Wild is a gripping adventure story about a domestic dog named Buck, who is stolen from his comfortable life in California and thrust into the brutal world of the Alaskan wilderness. As he is passed from one harsh master to another, Buck is forced to awaken his primal instincts in order to survive. Eventually, he embraces the wild entirely, answering the ancient call that echoes in his blood.
This novel is both a thrilling survival story and a meditation on the forces of nature, the struggle between civilization and instinct, and the journey toward freedom and self-discovery. Jack London captures the raw power of the wilderness and the untamed spirit that lives within all creatures.
