Synopsis

An ad exec, led to spiritual awakening by mystical Native Americans, discovers love and violence at the edges of sanity. Wolf, a predatory New York ad man on a mid-life path to self destruction, meets with a mysterious band of Native Americans who send him on a spiritual journey in the New Mexico desert. There's no turning back, as his life falls apart around him. Accused of murder, implicated in his friend's suicide, his marriage irrevocably broken, Wolf's sanity and very survival are at stake in his profound personal struggle to banish his own aggressive egotism, to connect with people and nature and to rebuild his life. Wolf 's Rite was nominated as the fiction book of the year by ForeWord magazine and won the POW! Book of the Year Award and a Star of Washington Award. "Persun is adept at conveying the complexities of human inner struggle."- Today's Librarian "This is well worth reading. Not only is it a very good Native American story, it also shows how even the most incorrigible person can change. Two thumbs up." - BookLore Review
