“Blazing…Visceral…As McConaghy shows in this stunning book, the limits of language lead us to the limits of empathy.”
―Los Angeles Times
“This heart-pounding novel digs into the complex relationships between humans―and the creatures with which we share the natural world.”
―Newsweek
“Suspenseful and poignant…[Inti’s] story unfolds as a meditation on the social and scientific consequences of influencing ecosystems, while reminding us that humans and animals alike can break our hearts.”
―Scientific American
“Lyrical, captivating, thought-provoking and thrilling, this immersive read will capture your attention from the first page.”
―Good Morning America
“Bold…A heartfelt and earnest novel.”
―The New York Times Book Review
“Gripping and often very moving…Despite the darkness and pain at the heart of McConaghy’s novel, it is not a bleak book. Instead, it bears within it an argument about the possibility of change. Recognizing the presence of other ways of being, of other minds and presences enlarges us, affording us a glimpse of the unknowable.”
―The Sydney Morning Herald
“Far more than an old wolves’ tale. Instead, it illustrates what it’s like to be an outsider―from both a human and animal perspective―and the level of healing and acceptance it takes from within to be accepted and to accept yourself.”
―Electric Literature
“The Australian author made waves with last summer’s Migrations, a meditation on climate change and loneliness, and returns with a new story set in the Scottish Highlands, where two twin sisters join a team attempting to reintroduce a pack of wolves to their natural surroundings.”
―Entertainment Weekly
