This highly-anticipated debut boldly confronts addiction and courses the strenuous path of recovery, beginning in the wilds of the mind. Poems address craving, control, the constant battle of alcoholism and sobriety, and the questioning of the self and its instincts within the context of this never-ending fight. Calling a Wolf a Wolf has been named a best book of 2017 by NPR, Library Journal and many more. “A breathtaking addition to the canon of addiction literature.” —PW, STARRED review
