<p><strong>Finalist for the 2022 Trillium Book Award</strong></p>
<p><strong>The intertwined story of a cougar and a man that portrays the strength, vulnerability, and consciousness of two top predators. Not since <em>Life of Pi </em>have we encountered such transcendence or walked so fully in the footsteps of a big cat.</strong></p>
<p>The “Old Woman” lives in the wild, searching for food, raising her cubs, and avoiding the two-legged creatures who come into her territory. But she is more than an animal — she is a mythic creature who haunts the lives and the dreams of men. Joseph Brandt has been captivated by the mountain lion’s legend since childhood, and one day he steps into the forest to seek her out. A classic in the making, <em>The Hunter and the Old Woman</em> is a mesmerizing portrait of two animals united by a shared destiny.</p>
