Molly GlossVezi magazinul LibrisIn 1905, a cigar-smoking, feminist writer of popular adventure novels for women encounters Bigfoot in Molly Gloss's best loved novel----never has there been a more authentic, persuasive, or moving evocation of this elusive legend: a masterpiece ( Kirkus Reviews , starred review).
Set among lava sinkholes and logging camps at the fringe of the Northwest frontier in the early 1900s, Wild Life is the story--both real and imagined--of the free-thinking, cigar-smoking, trouser-wearing Charlotte Bridger Drummond, who pens dime-store women's adventure stories.
One day, when a little girl gets lost in the woods, Charlotte anxiously joins the search.
When she becomes lost in the dark and tangled woods, she finds herself face to face with a mysterious band of mountain giants.
or more commonly known as Sasquatch.
With great assurance and skill, Molly Gloss blends heady cerebral satisfactions, gorgeous prose, and page-turning adventure (Karen Joy Fowler, bestselling author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves ), and puts a new spin on a classic piece of American folklore.
