“A Wolf Called Romeo is a book to keep a reader up nights, and a book that carries long after the last page is turned.” —Susannah Charleson, author of Scent of the Missing
“The writing is both lyrical and factual, and through Jans’s pen, we feel the crisp Alaska twilight and see the breeze ruffle Romeo’s black coat.” —Booklist, starred review
A Wolf Called Romeo is the true story of the exceptional black wolf who spent seven years interacting with the people and dogs of Juneau, Alaska, living on the edges of their community, engaging in an improbable, awe-inspiring interspecies dance, and bringing the wild into sharp focus.
When Romeo first appeared, author Nick Jans and the other citizens of Juneau were wary, but as Romeo began to tag along with cross country skiers on their daily jaunts, or play fetch alongside local dogs, or simply lie near Nick and nap under the sun on a quiet afternoon, Nick and the rest of Juneau came to accept Romeo, and he them. Part memoir, part moving animal narrative, part foray into the mystique, lore, science, and history of the wolf, A Wolf Called Romeo is a book no animal lover should miss.
