Wolfish: Wolf, Self, and the Stories We Tell About Fear by Erica Berry

4.0

challenging emotional informative reflective slow-paced

I found this one really interesting and I liked following the author as she explores wolves and how we live with fear more generally, as a woman especially. I had read less favourable reviews and wasn't sure what to expect, but I enjoyed it and liked the tone and the approach, although I understand the disappointment if someone wanted to read about wolves as they are mostly used as a metaphor here or seem through beliefs and folklore. Erica Berry did a great job in that respect and I admire the effort and research to include representations from many cultures and communities.
