Moving book about a young woman who has inherited an estate and sets about turning it into an animal sanctuary.

Sister Wolf is a feral love story, shot through with a distinctly odd sensibility that lends a humorous, human touch to its otherwise Gothic mien. Prijzen
Winner of the National Book Award for Best First Novel: Ann Arensberg's celebrated work tells a hallucinatory tale of sexual desire, jealousy, and savage love On a June night in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts, Marit Deym prowls her land, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the van from the Dangerfield Zoo. When it finally comes--hours late--five wolves leap out onto the sprawling wildlife refuge Marit has created. And then one night, the wolves bring a stranger to her door. A poetry instructor at a school for the blind, Gabriel Frankman lives in self-imposed exile after the death of the girl he loved. He visits her grave every weekend. He carries sunflower seeds in his backpack and his friends are the birds. Meeting the girl who keeps wolves will transform Gabriel's life in ways he could never imagine. Haunting and lyrical, shot through with grace notes of passion and sorrow,nbsp;Sister Wolfnbsp;is about the power of human beings--like that of their animal brethren--to survive and endure.
