Fiction
Step into the literary masterpiece that established John Cowper Powys as one of the greatest voices in 20th century British fiction. First published in 1929, Wolf Solent is a modernist classic that combines psychological depth, philosophical insight, and lyrical prose into one unforgettable novel.
The story follows Wolf Solent, a man torn between dreams and reality, as he leaves London for the English countryside in search of meaning, freedom, and self-discovery. Along the way he confronts love, betrayal, moral conflict, and spiritual longing, creating a psychological novel that feels both timeless and urgent.
Often compared to the works of James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, and D.H. Lawrence, Powys’s Wolf Solent stands as one of the great stream-of-consciousness novels of the modernist era, celebrated for its character-driven storytelling and philosophical exploration of life, morality, and the human condition.
Perfect for readers of classic literature, modernist novels, and philosophical fiction, this edition of Wolf Solent is essential for anyone seeking a forgotten literary gem and a British classic worthy of rediscovery.
