Howl: of Woman and Wolf

By Susan Imhoff Bird. Torrey House Press: Salt Lake City, UT, 2015.

Commemorating twenty years since the wolf’s return to the American West, Howl explores passions and controversies surrounding nature’s most fascinating predator. At a crossroads in her own life, Bird travels the West uncovering both a common love for the land and conflicting beliefs about wildlife among people who work with, for, or near wolves. Unleashed herself, she learns to howl.

Susan Imhoff Bird finds inspiration in Utah’s stunning canyons, valleys and water-sculpted rock. When not writing, reading, trying to meditate, or attempting yoga asanas, she can be found on her bicycle or snowshoes, absorbing the wisdom of the natural world. And occasionally howling.
