This collection of stories features the wolf as protagonist, trickster or agent of change. This charismatic creature has always retained a cross-cultural fascination and has shape-shifted itself throughout the ages as persecutor from the shadows, as a wily and wise ally on the trail, and now as a totem of hope for the rewilding movement.
This is an unforgettable compendium of tales to tell out loud. In the same way that the wolf has restored the biodiversity to Yellowstone National Park in that celebrated recent story of their reintroduction, the 'return of the wolf' in this entertaining anthology, brings a vitality and a richness that, who knows, just might have the same effect on the world of stories.
Filtered through the imaginations and indigenous tongues of storytellers from all over the world, this collection is rewritten and re-presented here by a master storyteller from the UK, who has been spinning nocturnal narratives around the campfire for 3 decades.
