WHITE FANG is a novel by American author Jack London - and the name of the book's eponymous character, a wild wolfdog. "So he became the enemy of his kind, domesticated wolves that they were, softened by the fires of man, weakened in the sheltering shadow of man's strength." —White Fang Jack London's The Call of the Wild, White Fang is the story of a wild dog's journey toward becoming civilized in the Canadian territory of Yukon at the end of the nineteenth century. White Fang is characteristic of London's precise prose style and innovation use of voice and perspective. Much of the novel is written from the viewpoint of the animals, allowing London to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans. White Fang relies on his instincts as well as his strength and courage to survive in the Yukon wilderness—despite both animal and human predators—and eventually comes to make his peace with man. White Fang has been adapted for the screen numerous times, including a 1991 film starring Ethan Hawke.

Pentru minte, visele n sine constituie realiti solide, precum starea normal de veghe. n vis, ca i n starea de veghe, percepem o multitudine de sentimente i emoii, precum i situaii de o realitate de necontestat, care ne influeneaz modul de comportament i fora vital. Numai c, atunci cnd ne trezim, ne dm seama c totul a fost doar o iluzie. Mintea, care n sine este un instrument, ajunge, prin puterea pe care i-o acordm n mod incontient, s ne subjuge i s ne manevreze dup propriile nchipuiri, fcnd acest lucru inclusiv n somnul cu vise. ns, n somnul adnc mintea nu mai este prezent, iar atunci cnd ne trezim nu mai avem nimic care s ne aminteasc de acea perioad. Totui, chiar i n somnul adnc exist ceva care ne nsoete, fcndu-ne s intuim c existm chiar i n acea perioad n care mintea este absent. Dup cei 10-12 ani ghidai de o persoan a crei identitate a rmas chiar i acum necunoscut, realiznd care este adevrata noastr natur, toate aceste metode i tehnici aplicate de mine i scrise aici n carte mi se par inutile. ns mi dau seama c la acel moment dac mi-ar fi spus doar att: tii c exiti“, Eti contient c exiti“ i Ai avut vreun moment n care nu ai existat“, nu cred c a fi neles nimic i simplitatea adevratei mele naturi (care este i a voastr) ar fi fost, ca de obicei, trecut cu vederea de minte.
