A disjointed fever dream of absurdity and personal philosophy
Revisado: 06-16-22
Guys, I was lured in by the promised story of a werewolf and werefox romantic story……what I got was an absolute ridiculous experience with 70% of the novel being long side tangents of the author’s personal take on philosophy and very little actual story, and the philosophy wasn’t especially good or new, but the usual way of men retelling of pre established statements in a slightly different wording and thinking they have created new and enlightening content of their own that men do and expect to be praised for.
The book is littered with absurdly disgusting views of Islam phobia, homophobia, misogyny, Russian right wing views, pedophilia, rape fetish, and an obsession with butt holes….yes I’m not joking. But the part that makes it even more absurd is that the author included the opposite views to some of these views leading me to think this book is an example of the internal struggle the author has in himself.
He speaks of a trans woman in the beginning of the book with more respect and normalcy than I expected of an older Russian book. This ally ship is all the more perplexing because of the pure hate and vitriol spoken of queer men later on and throughout the book. The constant mentioning of anal sex and ass holes and asshole imagery leads me to believe the author is a closeted woman who has been taught to hate herself from Russian society. I also believe the main character is a self insert because most the philosophical ramblings are done in her head as well as the fact she lacks a vagina but instead has a lubricated hole at the base of her tail, once again we are at anal…..
And the “love story” is just a dis functional argument between the macho Russian man he has been taught to be and the queer accepting woman the author wants to be. The wolf hardly even shows the fox actual healthy love and support and even leaves her for being much older than him and not the 17 year old child he thought she was. So it’s even more disgusting.
It was a flaming train wreck I couldn’t stop watching and frequently doubled over in laughter from the pure and uncomfortable absurdity toted as a love story.
There is also no plot, so little plot happens and is so underwhelming that it is probably only 3-4 hours worth of the entire reading, Wich is sad because there could have been a fun premise here. The book also seems to think is some literary work of art when it’s nothing more than less of a shitty detective novel the author speaks so lowly of, and all the more hypocritical than the hypocrisy they detests so much.
The only reason I would ever subject anyone else to this is so we can talk and laugh about how truly bad this is.

ordinary, mundane, predictable suspense/romance for women. i did agree with her psycological slant. men are stereotypically unbelievably evil or wonderful.
