Description

NATIONAL BESTSELLERFrom Lisa Taddeo, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller and global phenomenon Three Women, comes an "intoxicating" (Entertainment Weekly), "gripping" (New York), "explosive" (People), and "ferociously beautiful" (Library Journal) debut novel."With skill and insight, Taddeo examines how the savagery of men fuels female rage. The result is as intimate as it is explosive." —People (Book of the Week)"[A] propulsive, fiercely confident debut novel…Joan's voice is so sharp and magnetic that the reader will follow her anywhere…Taddeo's prose glitters. She has a gift for aphorism, the observation that astonishes." —The New York Times Book ReviewJoan has spent a lifetime enduring the cruelties of men. But when one of them commits a shocking act of violence in front of her, she flees New York City in search of Alice, the only person alive who can help her make sense of her past. In the sweltering hills above Los Angeles, Joan unravels the horrific event she witnessed as a child—that has haunted her every waking moment—while forging the power to finally strike back.Animal is a depiction of female rage at its rawest, and a visceral exploration of the fallout from a male-dominated society.
