| Summary | "Son of Power" by Will Levington Comfort is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story navigates the life of a boy named Sanford Hantee, also known as Skag, who develops an obsession with animals, leading him from a chaotic childhood in Chicago to the jungles of India. As Skag embarks on a quest for self-discovery, he encounters wild animals and forms deep connections with nature, while simultaneously searching for a mystical woman named Dhoop Ki Dhil, who embodies power and beauty. The beginning of the book introduces Skag as a young boy entrapped by the allure of the Lincoln Park Zoo, eventually leading him to runaway from home and engage in a series of adventures across the wilderness. After spending years with animals and experiencing hardships, he finds himself drawn to India where he hopes to learn about wildlife in their natural habitat. The narrative sets the stage for his transformative journey, where he becomes embroiled in the local culture and legends, especially regarding Dhoop Ki Dhil, the enchanting nautch-girl. Through his experiences, the story explores themes of power, connection to nature, and the pursuit of a deeper understanding of both the animal kingdom and human emotions.
