Wolves have invaded the seaside resort town of Santa Varvara, a fictional postindustrial city in Eastern Europe, killing thousands of people, but no one will speak of it except a Latin professor known as the Old Man. Part detective story, part fable, this novel is set in a mythical landscape where the boundaries between East and West, civilization and barbarianism have been erased. Narrated by a French journalist—Stephanie Delacour, Julia Kristeva’s alter ego—The Old Man and the Wolves shows the great thinker at the height of her literary powers.
