The Call of the Wild: The Original Classic Novel
The Call of the Wild is a novel by American writer Jack London. The plot concerns a previously domesticated and even somewhat pampered dog named Buck, whose primordial instincts return after a series of events finds him serving as a sled dog in the treacherous, frigid Yukon during the days of the 19th century Klondike Gold Rushes. Published in 1903, The Call of the Wild is one of London's most-read books, and it is generally considered one of his best. Because the protagonist is a dog, it is sometimes classified as a juvenile novel, suitable for children, but it is dark in tone and contains numerous scenes of cruelty and violence. London followed the book in 1906 with White Fang, a companion novel with many similar plot elements and themes as The Call of the Wild, although following a mirror image plot in which a wild wolf becomes civilized by a mining expert from San Francisco named Weedon Scott.
Ruf der Wildnis
Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts lebt der Hund Buck im Santa Clara Valley südlich von San Francisco. Eines Tages wird er von dem Gärtner seines Besitzers aufgrund von Spielschulden entführt und als Schlittenhund in die Klondike-Region von Alaska verschleppt. Im Verlauf der Geschichte erreicht ihn mehr und mehr der Ruf der Wildnis. Nach vielen Abenteuern mit ständig wechselnden Schlittenführern wird Buck von John Thornton gerettet. Die beiden werden ein unzertrennliches Paar. Nach dem Tod seines letzten Herrchens folgt der Hund, der nun ohne Bindung zu den Menschen ist, diesem Ruf endgültig und schließt sich einem Wolfsrudel an.
