野性的呼喚 白狼（英文版）

《野性的呼喚》是由20世紀初美國著名小說家杰克·倫敦所著，并于1903年發(fā)表。全書以19世紀淘金熱為大背景，當時，強壯的拉雪橇的狗成為搶手貨。小說主人公是一條名叫巴克的狗，本來它是家養(yǎng)的，但被人偷走，變賣到生存環(huán)境十分惡劣的阿拉斯加，去拉雪橇。巴克不得不強迫自己適應環(huán)境，與其他的狗打架爭奪地位，最終生存下來，并成為動物群中的首領(lǐng)。該書出版后，即給杰克倫敦贏得巨大聲譽。早在1908年，該書就被改編成電影，此后，又多次被拍攝成電影。小說《白狼》于1906年出版發(fā)行，大背景也是19世紀的淘金熱潮，也是從狗的角度，來看待人類的小說，可以說是《野性的呼喚》的姊妹篇，小說在人性、道德與救贖方面都有很深刻的探索。該小說多次被排成電影，最后一次是1991年，被好萊塢排成電影，受到觀眾們的歡迎。本版本是美國人最認可的哥登堡權(quán)威本。
