A life among words and wild things.

Portrait of Suzanne Mondoux

Suzanne Mondoux is a Canadian author, lyricist, and actor whose work returns again and again to a single question: what do we owe the creatures who share this world with us?

She is the author of five books — including The Adventures of Anuk, Tragedy of the Moth, and Letters from Federica — and a proud member of the Alliance of Independent Authors.

Beyond writing, Suzanne is a lifelong advocate for animal welfare and a devoted supporter of the Lapalala Wilderness School in South Africa, where children learn to become the wild's next protectors.

"The animals do not ask us to speak for them. They ask us to listen. The writing follows."
