The second in her Trilogy of the Body, The Burial of the White Wolf follows Barbieri's The Whore down a different delirious rabbit hole, this time centered on the murder of a woman of many names, tormented by men both vile and oblivious, men who are caught up in their own cycles of violence, sexual and otherwise, with their own severed limbs to worry about, of which this woman, who may be all women, for all time, may be one. Through visceral language and a deeply nested narrative structure, Barbieri pulls the darkest corners of our psyches inside out, exposing them to the light with unexpected consequences.
