"Kartmatu, seksikas, jõhker ja kliinilise täpsusega kirjutatud." - Jojo Moyes "Lööv. Nagu järjestikused granaadiplahvatused." - Marian Keyes Nurka aetud loom paljastab hambad. Ja ründab. Ma kihutasin end minema New Yorgist, kus üks mees end minu silme ees maha lasi. Ta oli ablas mees ja kui tema veri välja voolas, meenutas see sea verd. Ma tean, et nii on julm mõelda. Ta tegi seda restoranis, kus ma sõin õhtust ühe teise mehega, ühe teise abielus mehega. Kas sa juba aimad, kuhu see välja viib? Aga ma pole alati selline olnud. Ma olen rikutud. Ma loodan, et ma meeldin sulle. Rahvusvahelise menuki "Kolm naist" autor Lisa Taddeo kirjeldab oma esimeses romaanis meisterlikult ja tabusid kartmata naise seksuaalsust ja raevu. Seda, mis juhtub inimesega, kellelt on maha kistud kõik ühiskondlikke norme järgivad kihid ning alles on jäänud vaid ürgsed vaistud - need, mis ajendavad ründama ja kaitsma. "Joan on unustamatu antikangelane. Ma kardan, et ta jääb mulle igaveseks meelde." - Elizabeth Day "Nii hullult hea ja tõsi ja veider, et su hambad hakkavad higistama." - Olivia Wilde "Üks mu kõigi aegade lemmikkirjanikke." - Dua Lipa "Ülimalt enesekindel debüütromaan. Taddeo proosa sädeleb." - The New York Times Book Review "Haarav, vastik, erootiline, emotsionaalne..." - Kirkus Reviews "See raamat on raevukas, naljakas ja äge põnevik peategelasega, kelle elujõud erakordsetest raskustest hoolimata on imetlusväärne." - Financial Times

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller and global phenomenon Three Women, comes an "intoxicating" (Entertainment Weekly), "fearless" (Los Angeles Times), and "explosive" (People) novel about "what happens when women are pushed beyond the brink, and what comes after the reckoning" (Esquire). 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.
