Lone Wolf – Walking the Fault Lines of Europe with Author, Adam Weymouth
Advertisement
Follow the extraordinary journey of Slavc, a wolf who left Slovenia in 2011 and travelled through the Alps to northern Italy.
Description
Follow the extraordinary journey of Slavc, a wolf who left Slovenia in 2011 and travelled through the Alps to northern Italy, where he encountered a female wolf in a region that had been without wolves for a century. A decade later, more than a hundred wolves now live in the area — the result of that single meeting. In Lone Wolf, Adam Weymouth walks Slavc’s path, exploring the shifting landscapes of Europe where rewilding meets cultural preservation, and where climate change is reshaping lives and habitats.
Weymouth’s work has appeared in Granta, The Atlantic, The Observer and the BBC. His first book, Kings of the Yukon, won the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award, the Lonely Planet/Stanfords Adventure Travel Book of the Year, and the Prix Paul Emile‑Victoire, establishing him as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary nature writing.
Join us at Richmond Town Hall for an evening of powerful storytelling about wolves, wilderness and the fragile fault lines of Europe.
