Produktbeschreibung
Only a teenager when her beloved father was murdered, shot outside their home by his political opponents, as an adult Fatima Bhutto longed to build a happy family life. When she met a charismatic, alluring man, she thought she had found something special. The man promised to take away her pain; all she had to do was believe in him. This is the story of how Fatima freed herself from the tight coils of the man's manipulative charm and his dangerous, intoxicating hold over her. It's a tale that crosses continents, and travels into myth, literature, astronomy and art. By Fatima's side for the entire journey is Coco: a small, ferociously loyal Jack Russell terrier. In The Hour of the Wolf, Fatima Bhutto weaves wolf ethnography with her own suppressed maternal instinct; care for pregnant Coco with coercive attachments; and the power of found families with an exploration of humanity's connection to nature. The result is a memoir as intellectually compelling as it is intimate and evocative, and that has at its heart the simple truth that love can and should be free of pain.
