Content : I had white and sharp fangs, the spine slightly bent under my silver hair.
— All of a wolf! people said. Nobody approached me. Nobody dared.
But one day...
This wolfhound howls and paces in its cage, dreaming of wide-open spaces and a caress. Abandoned in a kennel, it needs to find a new master... but no one stops in front of it. Instead, people hurry along. But the master will come: a shepherd looking for a dog to watch over his flock.
The text is simple, strong and beautiful. Antoine Guilloppé's illustrations transcends it.
The dog eventually finds its place. A man discovers its true face and trusts it.
An invitation to go against one's prejudices.
