«Le Cri du loup» is a young adult novel by Melvin Burgess, published by Pocket in paperback, in French.
A hunter determined to exterminate all the wolves in England is about to succeed when the situation is reversed: he stops being the pursuer and discovers he has become the prey. The novel combines the tension of the pursuit with a vision of nature that refuses to be tamed.
The French edition was published in 1998; the work originally appeared in English as The Cry of the Wolf. The novel was nominated for the Carnegie Medal.
For young adult and teen readers, especially those who enjoy stories of pursuit and animals.
