Reading Bambi | Alexandria
Read Bambi by Felix Salten. Exploring humanity's primal relationship with death through a fawn's eyes, Bambi delivers an unflinching meditation on nature's brutal truths. Far from Disney's gentle adaptation, Salten's darker tale reveals how fear shapes survival, challenging the notion that innocence offers protection. His radical insight - that violence exists not as an aberration, but as life's fundamental teacher - resonates in our own complicated times.
