Samenvatting
The Call of the Wild is a novel by Jack London published in 1903. The story is set in the Yukon during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush – a period in which strong sled dogs were in high demand.
The novel’s central character is a dog named Buck, a domesticated dog living on a ranch in the Santa Clara Valley of California. Buck is stolen from his home and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska. To survive he has to revert back to a wild state. Buck is forced to fight in order to dominate the other dogs in the harsh climate. Eventually, he sheds the veneer of civilization, relying on primordial instincts and his new experiences to emerge as a leader in the wild. The terrible, never relenting work of pulling sleds in sub-freezing temperatures combined with little food and rest quickly killed any dog not extremely tough. It almost kills Buck but his fierce determination to survive finally brings him through.
Jack London lived for a year in the Yukon to collect material for this book.
