About This Book

Un loup hybride naît dans la rigueur du grand Nord et apprend, dès l'enfance, à survivre au milieu d'une nature impitoyable et aux règles violentes des meutes. Les rencontres avec des hommes successivement cruels et bienveillants façonnent son instinct: la brutalité lui inculque méfiance et agressivité, tandis que la patience d’un maître finit par éveiller sa capacité à la confiance et à l’affection. Le récit suit les étapes de cette transformation, alternant scènes d'action et descriptions psychologiques, et examine la tension entre hérédité et environnement, la loi du plus fort et la force civilisatrice de la compassion.
