We'll be discussing The Man Who Fell in Love With the Moon (1991).
This is a coming-of-age novel. Written in a poetic, unconventional style, the novel is a celebration of queer identity and a dark meditation on survival, desire, and the need to find one’s own place in the world.
Available in hard copy from Amazon (about $20), or local libraries. A pdf can be downloaded from https://files.catbox.moe/hxq5dv.pdf
There'll be about 10 of us and we meet upstairs at the Shakespeare. Ask at the bar or look for the sign. We are a friendly lot and newcomers are welcome.
