“It’s a story about how our ideas of success change over time, and the mysterious ways that our deepest friendships both hold us and release us.”— Rene Steinke, novelist and National Book Award finalist Talking to the Wolf is a poignant and haunting exploration of female friendship that unearths the past and the ghosts we carry into the present. Four women. Thirty-five years. A lyrical and unsettling look at female friendship across time. A failed rockstar, an awarded scientist, a work-obsessed misanthrope, and a ghost, whose untimely death ruptured the once-solid quartet, steel themselves for their thirty-fifth high school reunion dinner. Set during a surprise snowstorm in New York City the day of the reunion, Talking to the Wolf is a lyrical exploration of female friendship across decades. Like a Meg Wolitzer novel shot by filmmaker Nicole Holofcener and blessed by Virginia Woolf, Talking to the Wolf pole-vaults over the Bechdel Test.
