Should White Fang by Jack London be in the literary canon. White Fang is about a half wolf attacking men from a town in the snow while they are traveling with a dog sled team. The men are hunted by wolves in the forest and attacked many times. The half wolf eventually has a cub and there are many descriptions of the cub growing up and learning about the world. The wolf and cub are soon found by an Indian tribe and the audience learns that the wolf had belonged to an Indian in their camp and had the name Kiche. The cub is given the name White Fang and they learn how to live among people. He becomes in need of money so their tribe leader tries his best to go to the town and make some, though in that process he has to give away Kiche, and soon White Fang as well to a greedy old man who stole the money he made. The man breaks White Fang with the cane he trains him to fear and obey. Eventually White Fang is busted out of that horrible life and taken in by a couple that soon domesticates him again, then after White Fang helps them and protects them, they set him free back, so that he can again listen to the call of the wild. I do like the book and think it is interesting but the whole thing of the dog being broken though he finally conquered his fears and protects the people he loves to “answer the call of the wild” literally reminds me too much of, The Call of the Wild. The book is relatable in many senses though it is a very long and at times a boring read.
