The Call of the Wild: Buck is stolen from his home and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska. He progressively reverts to a wild state in the harsh climate, where he is forced to fight to dominate other dogs. By the end, he sheds the veneer of civilization and relies on primordial instinct and learned experience to emerge as a leader in the wild. Buck is a cultivated pet of Judge Miller, living happily in California's Santa Clara Valley. One day, he is stolen and sold to the cold Alaska. Jack London illustrates the human world through a dog's experiences.(野性的呼唤:作品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。 热望本已在,蓬勃脱尘埃;沉沉长眠后,野性重归来。 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。)
