Despu�s de Las ocho monta�as , regresa el autor de los Alpes italianos con una nueva novela. Un libro que huele a naturaleza. Rodeado de imponentes monta�as se encuentra el peque�o pueblo alpino de Fontana Freda, un lugar ideal para empezar de nuevo. A principios de oto�o, Fausto decide dejar atr�s un matrimonio fallido y la vida asfixiante de Mil�n para instalarse durante una temporada indefinida en la zona donde pas� los veranos de su infancia. Aqu� intentar� encontrar una nueva voz a su escritura mientras ejerce de cocinero en el restaurante regentado por Babette y traba amistad con algunos de los escasos lugare�os: un guarda forestal retirado al que le interesan poco los asuntos humanos y una joven camarera que se encuentra de paso a la b�squeda de las monta�as de cuatro mil metros que conoci� en los libros. El oto�o cede ante el invierno, y los pastos y los ganaderos dan paso a las nieves y a los primeros esquiadores, pero tambi�n al inminente regreso de los lobos, que, junto al viento, recorrer�n los profundos valles. Despu�s de Las ocho monta�as, la prosa cristalina y apacible de Paolo Cognetti regresa con una novela purificante que tiene la capacidad de ensanchar los pulmones y ampliar el horizonte. La felicidad del lobo evoca el poder de la naturaleza -de la alta monta�a, de sus cimas y bosques, de sus refugios y de sus animales-- para indagar en la libertad y los sue�os. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION After The Eight Mountains , the author from the Italian Alps is back with a new novel. A book with the scent of nature. Surrounded by majestic mountains stands the small alpine town of Fontana Freda, an ideal place to start over. In the early autumn, Fausto decides to leave his failed marriage and his smothering life back in Milan to settle indefinitely in the area where he spent every summer as a child. There he will try to find a new voice to write while working as a cook in a restaurant managed by Babette, where he will befriend some of the very few townspeople: a retired forest ranger who cares little for human affairs, and a young waitress passing through, searching for the thirteen-thousand-feet mountains she learned about from books. Autumn gives way to winter, and grasslands and farmers give way to snow and the first skiers, but also to the imminent return of the wolves, who will travel through the deep valleys alongside the wind. After The Eight Mountains , Paolo Cognetti's clear and peaceful prose returns in a purifying novel that has the ability to fill your lungs and widen your horizon. The Wolf's Happiness evokes the power of nature--of high mountains, its peaks and forests, its shelters and wildlife--to explore freedom and dreams.
