An unforgettable memoir about the friendship between a solitary woman and a wild fox. After completing her PhD in biology, Catherine Raven built a tiny cottage on an isolated plot of land in Montana, feeling both emotionally and physically isolated. She viewed the house as a temporary refuge while she applied for jobs to help her fit into society. In the meantime, she taught remotely and led field classes in Yellowstone National Park. One day, a mangy-looking fox began visiting her property daily at 4:15 p.m., marking the start of an unexpected companionship. Unsure how to interact with a fox, she brought out a camping chair and read to him from The Little Prince. Although her scientific training cautioned against anthropomorphizing animals, she discovered the fox's unique personality and they formed a bond. Through this connection, she learned that we are never truly alone when we engage with the natural world. However, friendships cannot shield us from the unpredictable forces of nature. This poignant tale explores themes of friendship, growth, and coping with loss, illustrating how such experiences can be transformed into meaning. It is a powerful narrative about solitude, belonging, and the profound impact of immersing oneself in nature.
