To witness. To contain. To hunt.
People in Småland are being provoked into action by a destructive species. It moves in packs at night. Gardens are being destroyed, farmland churned up. Yet its illusiveness draws in both visitors and inhabitants.
The forests of this stony province are home to a growing population of wild boar once on the verge of extinction. Told by three people newly arrived in an isolated community, Wild Boar is a compelling and poetic debut from Finnish/Swedish author Hannah Lutz about animals and people, their places in a changing ecosystem, and their capacities to grow and to destroy.
"
‘Hannah Lutz’s novel is an allegory of humanity’s plight in the age of impending climate catastrophe.’
" - Sydsvenskan
"
‘In this thin little book, every page bursts with the paradoxes that surround man and nature today’
" - Expressen (Sweden)
