The Call of the Wild
The Call of the Wild by Jack London is a novel written in the late 19th century, during the time of the Klondike Gold Rush. The story revolves around Buck, a domesticated St. Bernard-Scotch Shepherd mix, who is thrust into the brutal and primal world of the Yukon wilderness, forced to shed his civilized upbringing and adapt to a harsh life of survival. The opening of the book introduces Buck, who lives a comfortable life as a pet in Judge Miller's home in the Santa Clara Valley. However, his idyllic existence comes to an end when he is kidnapped by Manuel, a gardener's helper with gambling debts. Buck is soon transported to the north, where he faces mistreatment and a stark new reality. The narrative sets the stage for Buck's transformation from a pampered pet to a fierce survivor, illustrating the conflict between civilization and the primal instincts that begin to awaken within him as he navigates life in a wild, unforgiving landscape.

Down and Out in Paris and London
From the author of 1984, the classic semi-autobiographical story about the adventures of a penniless British writer in two cities.
Down and Out in Paris and London follows the journey of a writer among the down-and-out in two great cities. Without self-pity and often with humor, this novel is Orwell at his finest—a sobering, truthful portrayal of poverty and society.
This is the first full-length work by the English author George Orwell, published in 1933. It is a memoir in two parts on the theme of poverty in the two cities, which was written deliberately in a non-academic tone. Its target audience was the middle and upper class members of society-those who were more likely to be well educated-and exposes the poverty existing in two prosperous cities: Paris and London. The first part is an account of living in near-destitution in Paris and the experience of casual labor in restaurant kitchens. The second part is a travelogue of life on the road in and around London from the tramp's perspective, with descriptions of the types of hostel accommodation available and some of the characters to be found living on the margins. |

" Há, em todas as épocas, duas literaturas que passam mais ou menos alheias uma ao lado da outra: uma verdadeira e uma apenas aparente."
