Jim Harrison’s first novel—a walk on the wild side from “a force of nature in American letters” (The Seattle Times).
The New York Times–bestselling author of thirty-nine books of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry—including Legends of the Fall, Dalva, and Returning to Earth—Jim Harrison was one of our most beloved and acclaimed writers, adored by both readers and critics. Praised as “a raunchy, funny, swaggering, angry, cocksure book,” Wolf tells the story of a man who abandons Manhattan after too many nameless women and drunken nights, to roam the wilderness of northern Michigan, hoping to catch a glimpse of one of the rare wolves that prowl that territory (The New York Times Book Review).
“When you turn the last page and Swanson’s voice stops, you want to flip back and keep listening.” —San Francisco Examiner

Thanks for the ride, Jim. Through the years I've read various works by Harrison. Though he's never been my favorite author - I think mostly due to subject matter - I've always enjoyed his writing style and sensibilities. I picked up Wolf shortly after his recent death, as much to honor his memory as to take a look at one of the high points of his early career. The man was a damned good writer and a person with an enviable relationship with nature, and an interesting relationship with people. He's of a generation that included Bukowski and Roth, Steinbeck and Vonnegut. And it shows. Read the book; it's good. Soul searching of a high order contrasted with the ultimate practicality. He was, I dare say, the last of the Hemingways.Product details

Great Book.
I was hoping for a better memoir although his writing is fine.
Not the best of Harrison’s works, but readable and a nice little diversion.
Hemingway esk. Dark, odd formatting, somewhat difficult to follow. Not a good starter book for those just getting into JH
My first read by Harrison, who I latched onto by way of fly fishing in my (our) home state of Michigan and a fondness for Hemingway. This is worth a read if you want to hear about early/mid-century drinking, fighting, and sexual escapades—definitely fun, definitely literary, definitely not something I'm recommending to my mother.
my favorite author so all his books are best reading. still miss him will always
I like all Jim Harrison writings. This one is a bit more dry in spots than many of his other efforts but worth a look if you like him. The prose glows in spots. I've always been interested in the man and how he became and lived who he was. This work helps you see him more clearly, for better or for worse.
