Wolf Solent

First published in 1929, Wolf Solent was the first in John Cowper Powys' great sequence of visionary works of fiction, set in Hardy's Wessex but a Wessex now ravaged by the impact of the Great War and the curse of modernity. Both a lyrical story of the English countryside and an agonised account of life and love in the shadow of monstrous change, Wolf Solent is a cult novel like no other.
