The Call of the Wild
Jack London’s The Call of the Wild stands tall as an American metaphor for what we will never be, and what we could be, and what we will be.
Buck, the hundred and forty pound dog, gets, quite literally, sold up the river from an idyllic dog’s life in sunny California into a cold, dark, Alaskan slavery, is beaten, overworked, starved and neglected, jumps every hoop a dog could possibly jump, until in a narrow escape from an icy death, a woodsman takes him in, granting him healing and freedom and friendship.
