“White Fang” is the main character and title of the novel published in 1906 by the American writer Jack London (1876-1916). The story takes place during the Klondike Gold Rush at the end of the 19th century, in the Yukon Territory in Canada. Narrated almost entirely from the viewpoint of White Fang (a dog-wolf crossbred) the story focuses on his journey from cub to maturity, his adventures and his relationships with humans and animals alike. The author makes the most of this unusual approach in storytelling, by digging deep into complex themes, such as human cruelty, redemption, survival and violence.

“The Hound of the Baskervilles” is the third novel featuring the duo of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson. A man dies in very mysterious circumstances and Sherlock Holmes is asked to investigate. The evidence suggests foul play and the involvement of a giant spectral hound, a curse that supposedly haunts the Baskervilles since long ago. What immediately follows is a story of family betrayal, relentless greed, manipulation and lies against the marvellous intellect and observational skills of the world’s greatest detective and his trusty companion. Conan Doyle wanted to stop writing about Holmes to pursue new genres, but the fame brought by his most famous creation made him return to 221B Baker Street time and time again.
