Ashani Lewis
In one of America's Happiest Cities, Elen is trapped under the shadow of the snow-capped Cascade Mountains. Her husband has left her. Her belongings are in the boot of her car. Her days are filled mostly with silence and drinking. When she meets four English teenagers in an empty bar, she is enamoured.
The teenagers are wealthy squatters, drifting between ski resorts and breaking into empty AirBnBs. As they welcome Elen into their group, she senses a violent secret that fuels the four's never-ending disappearing act, simmering beneath the well-oiled machine of their socialist bliss.
Vibrant and cultish, they force Elen to ruminate on the irresistible pull of bright young things. She cannot understand what they want from her - but why would Elen leave when she has nowhere else to go?
A dark meditation on the dangers and seductive power of youthful idealism, and the slippages between friendship and love, Winter Animals is an extraordinary debut examining freedom, friendship, desire, and excess.

Kritikerstimmen
Excellent . . . Ashani Lewis is superbly talented. (Katherine Rundell)
A remarkable novel: atmospheric as hell, beautiful, and delightfully intelligent. Its unique sentences sparkle with energy. Think The Secret History written by Raven Leilani. I devoured it and am left wanting more, Ashani Lewis is a rare talent! (Jenny Mustard, author of OKAY DAYS)
Thoughtful, intelligent and beautifully written . . . Lewis is definitely a new talent to watch. ('We’ve found the best books of 2024 to curl up with')
A talented writer . . . Winter Animals is a dreamlike, piercing examination of privilege, youth and freedom. (Cecile Pin, author of WANDERING SOULS)
Beautiful writing ('From nuptial nerves to a tiger in Tbilisi — the best new debut fiction')
A glittering, dark-edged tale of snow, hedonism, passion, friendship and squatting that explores what happens when a group of rich kids attempt to live out their questionable utopian ideals. Exhilarating and fabulous, I raced through it. (Priscilla Morris, author of BLACK BUTTERFLIES)
Compelling
A debut full of ideas. I have the sense that this is the first of many new worlds. (Sophie Dickinson)
