From Little Stack
Joan is depraved. She says so herself. After all, there’s only so much trauma a woman can experience in her life before she has had enough. Men can be cruel and violent, and after witnessing a horrific act of violence, Joan hunts down the one person who can help her finally make sense of her past. But somewhere along the way, Joan stops being prey and wholly embraces her wild predator side.
Joan 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.
