I just finished this and it's such a lively, compelling telling. Grimbart won my heart tho (sorry, Reynard).

Reynard the Fox is a vivid, highly literate and beautifully descriptive book. If you’ve ever wanted to climb into a Medieval painting, or the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, this will get you part of the way.

When this book arrived for me at my local indie book store, the staff were all goggling over how beautiful it was. It's a lovely physical book as well as a lovely story. ❤️🦊

Feeling so terribly low today, trying to be jolly for my birthday later this week, but it's very difficult. I'd be very grateful for any prayers or kindly spells.

Cumbria, 1391. The last wolf in England felt desperately alone. He lived in the thorn woods at Humphrey Head & his one friend was a kind girl who gave him bacon & buttery scones. When he was killed & his soul flew over the sea, he howled her name to the dying sun, to the waves
