Thanks to Netgalley and Black Spot book for the Advance Reader Copy. It was a great pleasure to read this awesome anthology.
Howl is a darkly beautiful and feminist anthology of short stories and
poetry starring female werewolves and animalistic wolfish instinct.
"We fear her because we are her: the feral, the wild, the mad."
It
is a collection of beautiful and most of the time, difficult stories of
women werewolves, from a transition due to violence, to a mean to
escape, the stories show the hard truce of how hard it is to be a woman
and how they transform themselves to survive everything. The symbiotic
and hard, painful, communion between a wild animalistic nature and a
powerful female representation!
These stories are sometimes particularly creepy and hard to read, but so dark and beautiful. I really loved it.
It's emotional, dark, and gut wrenching. An interesting ode to feminism and to all the bumped woman and the queens who managed to transform a difficult past or life, or to those who didn't.
It's
sometimes turning into a monster and sometimes turning into something
wild and beautiful as a mean to escape a difficult life, violence and
life altering events. Mixing power and strengths to survive.
I loved some stories more than others but I always found something lovable in every on of the story related in this anthology.
I really recommend this.
