Shaun Ellis - Monty Sloan
Le loup sauvage et fascinant
(The wild and fascinating wolf)
“Just as our ancestors did two million years ago, let us look upon the wolves. Let us contemplate them. Hated at times, tragically hunted down, in the absolute freedom of their travels and their loves they continue to teach us of an essence that eludes us, escapes us, which we both fear and want to hear, on moonlit nights when they howl to the sky: paradise is here, where they are.” Hélène Grimaud.
More than 200 photographs: fascinating pictures of beauty and truth bear witness to the magic of the society of wolves.
This book is not especially focused on the Beast of Gévaudan but is a collection of beautiful photographs of the wolf.
I invite you to leaf through it and admire it as I have.
