EVER FELT READY TO HOWL?
Hyper-competent start up CFO Ellie is 46-year-old and like most women, is already juggling too much. Daughter’s not talking to her, husband’s not listening to her, and she's got a promotion coming up at work. 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.
A deeply gratifying, highly addictive and provocative read, Femme Feral is an exhilarating expression of feminine rage, with a warning: If you swallow your anger, it’s sure to come back with a bite.©2026 Sam Beckbessinger (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Critic Reviews
Savage, witty, gory, heartfelt, utterly relatable rage fantasy and a helluva good time. Miranda July meets Stephen King (Lauren Beukes, author of The Shining Girls)
A modern feminist classic
Bitingly funny, sharply observed, simmering with justified rage and buried wildness - a cathartic, necessary read (Catriona Silvey, author of Meet Me in Another Life)
Rollicking, unexpected and utterly hilarious...a feminist satire-cum-werewolf horror that is full of sharply observed, taboo-breaking moments
Witty, thrilling, and oh so righteously FERAL. Sam Beckbessinger’s command of voice and character is superb. Make a to-do list and be sure to put this book at the top of it (Nat Cassidy, bestselling author of When the Wolf Comes Home and Mary)
Thrillingly gory and radical
A fun and fierce look at womanhood and all the ways we hold back our rage. I laughed, cried and felt vindicated. Superb (Shubnum Khan)
