Wow. What a unique read from Ayelet. This is the first book I’ve read by this author, in thanks to NetGalley and the publishing house for the ARC read!
To me this translated fiction covers a great deal of topics over a short span of time. Enjoyers of translated fiction, thrillers, mysteries, and psychology will love this book.
Heavy in exploration of antisemitism and racial and immigrant issues, Ayelet very successfully invites the reader along a thriller plot line that also explores the psychology of motherhood and parenting in modern day society.
The blunt language in which Ayelet chooses to communicate can sometimes be breath catching, particularly when discussing racial issues- but works in a thought provoking way.
At the end of the novel the reader is left wishing for more, with questions left seemingly unanswered- or are they? The Wolf Hunt is a fabulously challenging read which begs us to think about the challenges of motherhood, cultural influences, and raising children in the 21st century.
Huge praise to this magnificently done novel!
