The extraordinary speculative novel of past, present and future, by the Clarke Award-shortlisted author of THE CORAL BONES.



Decades from now, two women sit around a fire on Beltane, May Eve, and reflect on their life stories.



Activist Lucy's earliest memories are of living with her grandparents during the 2020 pandemic, and discovering her grandmother's love of birds. Filmmaker Hester, born on the day of the Chornobyl explosion, visits the plant in 2021 to film its feral dog population, and encounters the wilded Exclusion Zone - and a wolf-dog.

Over half a century, their journeys take them from London to Balmoral to Somerset, through protests, family rifts, and personal tragedy. Lucy's path leads to the fight to restore Britain's depleted natural habitats and bring back the species who once shared the island, whilst Hester strives to give a voice to those who cannot speak for themselves. Both dream of a time when there are wolves again.



A novel of life and of hope, WHEN THERE ARE WOLVES AGAIN is perfect for fans of Clade by James Bradley, The Wolf Border by Sarah Hall, and The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson.

Recenzijas

Confirming EJ Swift's standing as a writer of urgent, beautifully crafted eco-fiction, her latest novel is haunted by the legacy of Chornobyl. When There Are Wolves Again suggests a new beauty might lie within our reach if we commit, as do Swift's characters, to rewilding, species reintroduction, activism of one sort or another, and a dutiful stewardship of the land. I'm left with a much-needed feeling of optimism. * Anne Charnock, author of DREAMS BEFORE THE START OF TIME * When There Are Wolves Again is an extraordinary novel, compassionate, urgent, and beautifully written, both intimate and sweeping in its depiction of our natural world and the two women who fight to save it. It has perfectly merged literary and speculative fiction into an instant classic * Lavie Tidhar, author of MAROR * Written with deep care and fierce hope, When There Are Wolves Again offers thoughtful answers to urgent questions about our future. It's a joy to read - effortlessly controlled and textured, moving in its details yet bold in scope - and a brilliant example of what can be done with the tools of speculative fiction * Matt Hill, author of LAMB *
