The Call Of The Wild review

The Gold Rush in the Yukon and Alaska has prompted

the need for big, strong dogs who will be able to pull

sleds over icy trails. Buck, a large animal living in

the home of Judge Miller in Santa Clara, California,

is exactly what the explorers want. He is an animal with

human-like tendencies, intelligence, strength and

dignity. Thus far he has enjoyed his civilized life with

the occasional nature stroll or hunting trip. Manuel,

a gardener’s helper with a penchant for gambling and

a need for money, manages to kidnap Buck and sell him

on the black market. He is given to a saloon-keeper and

transported via train to the Northland. Throughout the

ordeal, Buck is kept in a cage and becomes increasingly

angry. He manages to badly bite one of his kidnappers.

《野性的呼唤》读后感

《野性的呼唤》，又名《荒野的呼唤》（The Call of the Wild），是美国作家杰克·伦敦创作的中篇小说。

作品讲述巴克原是米勒法官家的一只爱犬，经过了文明的教化，一直生活在美国南部加州一个温暖的山谷里。后被卖到美国北部寒冷偏远、盛产黄金的阿拉斯加，成了一只拉雪橇的狗。该作以一只狗的经历表现文明世界的狗在主人的逼迫下回到野蛮，写的是狗，也反映人的世界。

该作延续了杰克·伦敦小说的“生存”主题：生命总是在不断挣扎求存的过程中获得意义与力量。

杰克·伦敦（1876-1916），美国现实主义作家。出生于美国加利福尼亚旧金山的一个破产农民家庭。他从小参加体力劳动，受尽生活折磨。后来，他做过童工、工人和水手，也当过劫取牡蛎的“蚝贼”。1893年由于美国发生严重经济危机，杰克·伦敦以无业游民罪被捕。1897年他到阿拉斯加淘金，结果一粒金子也没淘到却得了坏血病。从此，他开始了文学创作生涯，并于1900年发表统称为“北方故事”的系列小说。他从1900年起连续发表的许多中短篇小说，因其作品大都带有浓厚的社会主义色彩，因此有人认为他是宣扬社会主义的作家，但也有人认为他是表现个人主义与民众哲学的自然主义作家。40岁时，他以自杀结束了自己的生命。
