Jungle Tales of Tarzan
Jungle Tales of Tarzan, published as a book in 1919, returns to the hero's youth among the great apes, before the arrival of the white men who change his life. Its twelve linked stories show the boy growing into manhood and puzzling over the world: he falls for the young she-ape Teeka, is captured by villagers, sets out to find God, steals a black child to raise as his own, battles the witch-doctor Bukawai, and tries to rescue the moon from a beast he believes is devouring it. Edgar Rice Burroughs mixes action with comedy and with a surprising curiosity about what a mind raised outside human society might make of love, fear and death. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first story is free.
