I
finished reading Jack London’s White Fang,
a novel from the perspective of a wolf-dog as he goes from wild to tame. White
Fang is London’s complementary novel to The
Call of the Wild, where a tamed dog enters the forest and becomes wild.
“But it did not all
happen in a day, this giving over of himself, body and soul, to the
man-animals. He could not immediately forego his wild heritage and his memories
of the Wild. There were days when he crept to the edge of the forest and stood
and listened to something calling him far and away.”
― Jack London, White Fang
