My current novel, LONE WOLF, looks at the intersection between medical science and moral choices.
My LONE WOLF book tour in the US, Canada,and the UK and Ireland is over. A huge THANK YOU to all of my fans for coming out to these events!
Lone Wolf raises three thought-provoking questions:
- If we can keep people who have no hope for recovery alive artificially, should they also be allowed to die artificially?
- Does the potential to save someone else’s life with a donated organ balance the act of hastening another’s death?
- When a father’s life hangs in the balance, which sibling should get to decide his fate?
What others are saying about Lone Wolf…
“Picoult returns with two provocative questions: can a human join a wolf pack, and who has the right to make end-of-life decisions? ... Picoult as usual probes intriguing matters of the heart while introducing her fans to subjects they might not otherwise explore. You can always count on Picoult for a terrific page-turner about a compelling subject.”
— Publishers Weekly
“Picoult’s impressive research into wolf biology, hierarchy and pack mentality ultimately forms a plausible and highly informative story. …. Picoult portrays the human world and its petty paperwork as significantly less dignified (then wolves). This is a heartbreaking story told in engaging prose.”
— IMAGE Magazine…
