Omschrijving
Berry draws on a huge, rich depository of lupine literature. Wolfish is more than just an interesting exercise in cultural anthropology, though. The book's most obvious ancestor is Helen Macdonald's megahit of 2014, H Is for Hawk; it has that same intellectual range and a prose style that pushes [. . .] towards the poetic
A singular book. Reading this will invite you to examine your own walk through the world - hungry, afraid, brave
Startling in its scope, covering everything from fairy tales to domestic violence. This book should be required reading
Ranging far and wide culturally in the company of wolves . . . Berry segues effortlessly from the reintroduction of wolves at Yellowstone national park to Pliny the Elder's belief that wolves held pharmacological benefits for women's bodies
Singular . . . a book entirely its own
Explores the contours of human relationships - and what it means to be a woman - through this most familiar yet mysterious of creatures
Terror propels Erica Berry's exhilarating book . . . No matter where Berry weaves, she sniffs out fascinating insights. And she writes about it in clear, beautiful language
I devoured every startling, lyrical, haunting, yet all-too-familiar page of Wolfish. Such a stunning achievement, it left me feeling like one of the pack
An exhilarating book - intricate, thoughtful, and thick with connections
Berry's braided approach renders Wolfish both a vulnerable self-investigation and a wide-ranging exploration of fear - and, ultimately, an antidote to it. She makes a stirring case for walking alongside the symbolic wolf
