"Uses David's story [of spending ten minutes alone with a tiger in its cage] and other moments of violent encounters between humans and predators to explore the line between human and animal. Exposing what the author defines as the 'shared liminal space between peace and violence,' Church posits that the animal is always encroaching on the civilization--and those seeking its wildness are in fact searching for an ecstatic moment that can define what it means to be human"--Amazon.co
