St. Lucy's Home For Girls Raised By Wolves by Karen Russell

In a whimsical and poignant tale, a group of young girls, who have been raised by wolves, are sent to a convent-like institution to be "civilized" and integrated into human society. The story unfolds through the eyes of one of the girls, exploring the challenges and transformations they face as they navigate the complexities of human culture, identity, and belonging. The narrative beautifully captures the tension between their wild instincts and the expectations of their new environment, offering a unique perspective on the universal struggle of finding one's place in the world.
