White Fang - A Thrilling Tale of Survival Instinct and Transformation in the Wild North

Jack London

Sinopse

Born in the wild. Raised by wolves. Drawn to man.

In the icy wilderness of the Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush, a wolf-dog pup must navigate the brutal laws of nature and the harsher laws of humankind. From the fierce struggle for survival in the frozen North to the challenges of living among men, White Fang is the unforgettable journey of a wild creature's fight for life, freedom, and identity.

First published in 1906, Jack London's White Fang is a mirror image of his earlier classic, The Call of the Wild. While that story followed a domesticated dog's return to the wild, White Fang traces the opposite path—a wild animal's gradual transformation through trust, loyalty, and the possibility of love. London's vivid descriptions, intense action, and deep empathy for the natural world make this novel a timeless masterpiece of adventure fiction.

"A moving tale of the wild, man's cruelty, and the redemptive power of kindness."
– The New York Times Book Review

"One of London's most enduring works—brutal, beautiful, and deeply human."
– The Atlantic Review
