Wildlife is the fourth novel by American author Richard Ford. It was first published in 1990.
The story is set in Great Falls, Montana in 1960. It is narrated by 16-year-old Joe Brinson, as he observes his parents' marriage dissolve right in front of his eyes, and as his mother begins an affair.
Since the action and plot are set in Montana, it’s been called one of Ford’s “Montana books,” along with his story collection Rock Springs, and his novel Canada.[1]
