Li anteontem o "The Call of the Wild" inteiro. Adiciono minha recomendação do livro à dos confrades.

Spoiler Revelar

Mercedes nursed a special grievance—the grievance of sex. She was
pretty and soft, and had been chivalrously treated all her days. But the
present treatment by her husband and brother was everything save
chivalrous. It was her custom to be helpless. They complained. Upon
which impeachment of what to her was her most essential sexprerogative,
she made their lives unendurable. She no longer considered
the dogs, and because she was sore and tired, she persisted in riding on
the sled. She was pretty and soft, but she weighed one hundred and
twenty pounds—a lusty last straw to the load dragged by the weak and
starving animals. She rode for days, till they fell in the traces and the
sled stood still. Charles and Hal begged her to get off and walk, pleaded
with her, entreated, the while she wept and importuned Heaven with a
recital of their brutality.
On one occasion they took her off the sled by main strength. They
never did it again. She let her legs go limp like a spoiled child, and sat
down on the trail. They went on their way, but she did not move. After
they had travelled three miles they unloaded the sled, came back for her,
and by main strength put her on the sled again.

Excelente.
