Jack London 
The Call of the Wild 

The Call of the Wild is a short adventure novel by Jack London, published in 1903 and set in Yukon, Canada, during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush, when strong sled dogs were in high demand. The central character of the novel is a dog named Buck. THE CALL OF THE WILD. The Call of the Wild, Jack London’s 1903 Klondike Gold Rush-set adventure, was banned in Yugoslavia and Italy for being ‚too radical‘ and was burned by the Nazis because of the author’s well-known socialist leanings. The moral of the novel concerns the human connection to the primal aspects of nature and ways in which our connection to civilization has interfered with that important connection. Within that connection lies something almost spiritual, where a man can understand his strength and essence.
