Book Detail

When lightning strikes Artemisia Cavelli, it rewires the young artist's mind in magical ways. From her hospital she steps into a maelstrom of betrayal, conspiracy, tormented love and desperate vulnerability. But she doesn't leave alone. She's accompanied by a white wolf, visible to a few but not to most. Like her namesake, the goddess Artemis, who cured the diseases of women, she is about to change what she touches. The lives of all who know her will be turned inside out in this riveting modern fable of transfiguration set in New York's art world, a world the author illuminates with devastating intimacy. Artemisia's Wolf is an unforgettable homage to women oppressed by a male hierarchy.

By Martina Newberry (272 Days Ago)A book review of ARTEMESIA'S WOLF by Djelloul Marbrook

Readers who have not had the exquisite experience of reading Djelloul Marbrook’s work—his poems or his first novel, Saraceno—would do well to start with Artemesia’s Wolf. It’s simply enchanting

It stopped my heart, cracked my head, tore my rotator cuff, turned me purple
and made my crotch bleed. Just for starters. Then the fun began.

So begins ARTEMESIA'S WOLF by Djelloul Marbrook. The day I received this book, I sat down in my reading chair and didn’t get up again until I was finished.

Lightning has struck Artemesia in more ways than one; her life, her body, her mind is torn to pieces. It is all put back together with the help of a White Wolf (who is not seen by everyone). Artemesia leaves the hospital and begins life on a new and disturbing plain. She re-enters the world, finding it very different than she left it. This is a mesmerizing novel—as surreal, and disturbing as the readers’ introduction into the New York art community. This is a novel about about women (mainly women in the arts), the obstructions they face in a world dominated by men, and about the magic of change.

Djelloul Marbrook writes about oppression with sensitivity and insight. As a woman in the arts, I found the novel addressing me directly and looking into my own heart and mind as if it were written about and for me. I think most readers will see themselves somewhere in this story, either as oppressor or oppressed. Whichever self is discovered in this novel, the journey will most certainly be a magical mystery tour.

It’s an experience serious readers won’t want to miss.
