In 2012 she became the first woman to give the Andrew Lang lecture. From the dust jacket description: “In flight from the visions that plague him, young Merlin plunges deep into a forest as troublesome as the city he has left behind. There he falls into the hands of the wodewose—wild folk who, according to legend, live in the company of serpents and wolves, and devour children. But far from being wild, the wodewose, Merlin discovers, are an enormous family of the unwanted: their ranks are made up of abandoned children, cast-off men, runaway women. For once in his life, Merlin has found a place where an orphan like himself belongs. But no sooner has he arrived than his dreaming marks him an outcast, even among outcasts. And the key to his survival lies with a towheaded child whose companions are wolves and bears—a child who shall, the wodewose predict, grow up to be a king.” DESCRIPTION: 91 pages 8 1/2 x 5 3/4 inches Sixth printing, hardcover with dustjacket CONDITION: This hard-cover book is in fine condition with like dustjacket.
