The Call of the Wild

59 min

Jack London's 1903 novel, told softly. Snow, sled lines and northern lights over Buck's long road back to the wild.

Retold for sleep from The Call of the Wild by Jack London, first published in 1903 and long out of copyright. The story is London's; every sentence here is our own.

Deep, slow, spacious

Low, slow and spacious, a gentle cadence with long pauses, tuned for the dark and made to be drifted off to.
