Miguel Fernández-Pacheco, un escritor que se mueve con soltura en la noche encantadora de la Edad Media, opone la certeza de nuestra ferocidad a la brutalidad inocente de la naturaleza. Con elementos tomados de las leyendas que conforman el antiguo venero que alimenta su obra, mezclados sabiamente con una sensibilidad contemporánea, Fernández-Pacheco transfigura una vieja historia –la del lobo que intenta vivir con los hombres– y nos la devuelve nueva y animada por un lenguaje en el que resuenan los ecos de las fábulas, esas cartografías que señalan el curso de los viajes espirituales en los que todos nos hemos embarcado.

A wonderful take on the old story of a wolf turning into a man and discovering what it means and what it takes to live among men to chase after a woman he once saw in the woods. The author successfuly managed to capture the point of view a wild wolf would have if he was subjected to what men can do, be it right or wrong.
An enlightening read about the things we do and how absurd they are sometimes, if only we had someone not-human to remind us.

Entre el cuento de hadas y el relato decimonónico caballeresco, con todo y juicio de Dios... Es una alabanza a la superioridad de los animales sobre los humanos, pero también un libro machista...
