Felix Salten
Complex, thought-provoking, and beautifully written, Felix Salten’s original Bambi isn’t the simplistic tale told in film. While Bambi grows and matures, he sees that the creatures of the forest are constantly forced to come to terms with their own mortality, for death comes unexpectedly and frequently. At times, the thundering third leg of “He” is heard, killing the unwary and exposed. Bambi learns the vital tools to survive in a world that is perpetually hostile.

The struggles of survival, fear of "Him" (humans), and the natural cycles of life and death are explored with a seriousness and depth absent from the movie. Oh yes, the death of Bambi's mother as depicted in the Disney movie is nothing compared to the brutalities described in the book. The description of the hunt is raw and unsettling. As hunters invade the forest, the animals are thrown into chaos, and the violence of their deaths is vividly depicted. It also serves, in part, as a warning of what might happen if a wild animal loses its fear of humans... and the consequences it could bring.
The result is a more complex story that highlights the harsh realities of nature while offering a poignant coming-of-age narrative.
Salten's Bambi is a captivating, somber reflection on life in the wild—one that strips away sentimentality to reveal nature's beauty and cruelty in equal measure.
Unsettling and rightfully so
