Hungry for Home: A Wolf Odyssey

In Hungry for Home, a brilliant story about a cunning wolf mother and her family struggling for survival in the contemporary West, where their only enemies are human, Asta Bowen has written a compelling "Wolf Odyssey" that is at once deeply moving and richly informative. At its center is Marta, a wolf mother with a young family, who sets out on an epic journey to return to her home hunting grounds after having been "rescued" and displaced by a group of well-meaning naturalists. A work of fiction based on fact, Marta's story, told believably from her point of view, takes the reader deep into the wolf's world, as Marta's fierce determination to protect her pups and regain her "home" - a territory of her own - takes her from adventure to adventure, often perilous, sometimes tragic. The characters of Marta and her companions are drawn vividly, but with no false sentimentality or anthropomorphism; these are, first and always, wolves, and their perceptions, actions, and reactions are those a wolf might have.
