'A fascinating voyage into the night'

i Paper

The night has always been teeming with life. From the labour of security guards and sex workers to the ecstasy of queer raves and religious ceremonies, this nocturnal landscape is populated by many, cloaked beneath the darkness. It is a time of fear and vulnerability, nightmares and insomnia — yet it contains another world, too, one of beauty and possibility.

Haunting and intimate, Wolf Moon is an entrancing journey from dusk until daybreak, and a remarkable exploration of how the night has shaped our bodies, minds, and cultures.
