A WOMAN RIDES CROCODILES LIKE HORSES. A QUEEN GIVES UP HER THRONE FOR HER DIGNITY. AND PRINCE CHARMING IS NOT WHO YOU MIGHT THINK . . .When a gentleman's advances are spurned by a young lady carrying a she-wolf aboard a ship, he assumes her aloofness is designed to increase his attentions - until she makes a surprising decision. 'The Woman of the Wolf' is the first in a series of powerful portraits of strong women who stand up for what they believe in - and of the aggrieved men who trail behind them.Bold, defiant and suffused with a unique poetic voice, these scintillating short stories offer a radical alternative to traditional lore. Blending myth, fairy tale and biblical story, the collection shows the writing of Belle Époque rebel Renée Vivien to be the forerunner to today's feminist retellings.
