Publisher Review

Ali Smith says: "Some teenage girls have - yes - performed a spell and hexed the moon. Now the moon, smooth-skinned, street- smart, dryly witty, seductive, powerful beyond belief, is literally hanging out in one of their bedrooms. Pitch Perfect gone cosmic: in stylish sleight of hand and with pleasurable bravado this pop song of a novella reveals the huge issues, importances, losses, survivals, impotence and potencies in the everyday existence of a group of best friends and their families, a community of small-town people living their lives between nai vety and experience, youth and age, on the surface of the western world, in the unexpected absence - and intimate presence - of moonlight. Fullofyoung-adultwisdom,braidingdarkand light together, it's a charmer."
