Etext produced by PG Distributed Proofreaders HTML file produced by David Widger "BROWN WOLF AND OTHER JACK LONDON STORIES" by Jack London is a collection of short stories likely written in the late 19th century. The stories featured demonstrate London's talent for storytelling that captures the rugged essence of adventure, often focusing on human and animal characters navigating the challenges of nature. The main narrative in the opening portion centers around a man named Walt Irvine and his wife, Madge, who encounter a wild dog named Wolf, whom they affectionately try to domesticate. At the start of the collection, we are introduced to the rugged atmosphere of the couple's mountain cottage, where they share a bond with Wolf, a timber-wolf with a complex past that intrigues them. Walt’s poetic nature contrasts with Madge's practicality as they reflect on their attempts to win Wolf’s affection. The duo faces the challenge of understanding Wolf's fierce independence, which leads to a cycle of escape and return. The narrative weaves themes of love, connection, and the deep instinctive pull of nature, setting the stage for the ensuing story's explorations of human-animal relationships and the wilderness.
