Book summary

Buck, a pet dog used to a peaceful life, is stolen and sold as a sledge dog in the Far North, in the middle of the gold rush. Under the whip and in the cold, he learns the law of the strongest, and the wild instinct of his ancestors slowly awakens in him.

A powerful adventure about survival and freedom, in which the wild takes back its own.

Jack London's direct, vivid style makes it an ideal first classic to read in the language you are learning.

The plot

密林深處的呼喚。巴克是一隻來自加州的大狗,被人偷走,帶到了遙遠的北方。一天夜裡,牠猛然驚醒:森林裡傳來一聲悠長的嚎叫,像狗叫,又不全然是。巴克穿過沉睡的營地,朝那叫聲奔去。

The world of the book

淘金熱的年代。加拿大遙遠的北方發現了黃金。成千上萬的人蜂擁而至,他們需要強壯、毛皮厚實的狗,在酷寒中拉雪橇。
