"LOBA is a visionary epic quest for the reintegration of the feminine, hailed by many as the great female counterpart to Allen Ginsberg's HOWL when the first half appeared in 1978. Now published for the first time in its completed form with new material, LOBA (she-wolf in Spanish) explores the wilderness at the heart of experience, through the archetype of the wolf goddess, elemental symbol of complete self-acceptance."
