White Fang
White Fang is born in the frozen Yukon, half-wolf and half-dog, and from his first breath the world is terror and hunger. He learns the law of fang and claw before he learns the law of love. Through a chain of owners, from the indifferent Native American woman to the cruel White trader who names him for the white of his fur and the whiteness of his rage, he is shaped by violence, by fear, and finally by something gentler. This is the story of a wild creature finding his way toward domestication, though the wild never quite leaves him. London renders an animal's consciousness with startling intimacy: the world as scent and sound and instinct, the Yukon frozen and brutal and beautiful. It's The Call of the Wild inverted and deepened, asking not what we leave behind when we go wild, but what we carry with us when we're tamed.
