About this listen

Wolf Country is a powerful dystopian vision in the spirit of Black Mirror and Never Let Me Go.

Ownership of land outside the city is the preserve of a tiny elite and the rest of the population must spend to earn a Right to Reside. Ageing has been abolished thanks to a radical new approach, replacing retirement with blissful euthanasia at a Dignitorium. When architect Philip goes missing, his wife Alice risks losing her home and her status, and begins to question the society in which she was raised. Her search for him uncovers some horrifying truths about the fate of her own family and the reality behind the new social order.

Critic reviews

"A chilling and politically astute dystopia." (Jane Rogers)
All stars

This is a brilliant novel and superbly narrated by Amaka Okafor. I'm a fan of dystopia, sci-fi, thrillers and Tunde Farrand's Wolf Country I feel is a classic in this genre.

The story is set in London 2050 where the new social order has eradicated poverty, and citizens, dependent on status, enjoy a comfortable or luxurious lifestyle. However, as the story unfolds through our protagonist Alice we learn more about the dark reality of the 'new system'. Gripping, frightening and thought-provoking as this novel touches on many of the social issues that face us now with terrifying future 'solutions'.

Overall, the novel felt to me very much in the spirit of Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror and Huxley's Brave New World.

I liked the dystopian themes and that it wasn’t too dark. It wasn’t mentally taxing and was a bit like binge-watching an enjoyable - but not particularly challenging - series. The wolf theme was a bit underdeveloped but it was all tied up nicely in the end. When I think of this story, the word ‘nice’ seems to sum it up.

A nice tale

I devoured this book right up to the final few chapters and an ending which felt disjointed from the rest of the book and just didn’t work for me. BUT up to that point I was engrossed. As with all great dystopias, the passage to this awful societal system was all too credible. The depressing eye through which old age ‘in the past’ was shown, was a little bit too near to the truth - brilliant. Even if you feel as I do about the ending, the book is definitely worth a read/ listen.

Fabulous premise, scary dystopia

I liked how it shows the dangers of euthanasia and of capitalism. It was upsetting and comforting all in one. I really enjoyed this tale.

Original story very well written
