It is impossible to pass by this book. From its cover, from the impenetrable blackness of the polar night, the wolf looks at us - and you involuntarily stop before its severe and demanding look, suddenly realizing yourself in an eternal confrontation with nature.
From this cruel confrontation, the story of the outstanding American writer Jack London "White Fang" begins. And in the first part, wolves win people and wolves in the fight. After all, the struggle for survival is an integral part of their life, what they absorb with mother"s milk. "The purpose of life is prey. The essence of life is prey. All the living in the world is divided into those who eat, and those who are eaten. " And at first it seems that the world of people is slightly different from the world of wolves. According to the laws of the Indian tribe, the weak must obey the stronger. In the monstrous world of handsome Smith or Jim Hall, the weak is simply destroyed.
But the greatness of the writer, the artist, the master just consists in what path he offers people. In the story "White Fang, this is the path of Widon Scott: the path of love, patience, hope and fidelity. And even the wolf, once standing on this path, passes (or rather - rises - rises?) From the fierce confidence "everyone for himself" to the true heights of self -sacrifice for the sake of those whom you love.
In this book, Jack London’s magnificent text organically and naturally combined, the impeccable classic translation of Natalia Volzhina and the new, fascinating excellent illustrations of Vladimir Kanavts. Believe me, all this is worth stepping towards a stern wolf on the cover - and no longer part with it!
