Femme Feral - The howlingly fierce and funny female rage sensation of 2026

'Savage, witty, gory, heartfelt, utterly relatable rage fantasy and a helluva good time. Miranda July meets Stephen King' Sunday Times bestseller Lauren Beukes

Like most women, 46-year old hyper-competent tech CEO Ellie's already juggling too much. She's got a promotion coming up and it's an inconvenient time to be beset by mid-life symptoms: coarse hair in new places, hot flushes, insomnia, losing time, finding bloodstains on all her clothing, howling at the moon.

Her doctor diagnoses perimenopause. But it's another 28-day cycle that's taking hold. One involving fur, and teeth, and a not insignificant amount of rage.

Suddenly the troubles in her life - hot flushes, thankless family, spiralling to-do list, oblivious husband, the w*nker promoted above her at work - seem almost. bite-size.

Outrageous, witty and wonderfully feral, in her adult debut Sam Beckbessinger explores female ferocity in modern urban (mid)life with a literary howl that will leave you transformed.
