The Black Moon

THE BLACK MOON is a novel about the fear of magic, the simple everyday magic of being. Is it our obsession for violence that blocks the poetry of our need for love? Why can’t we simply inhale our existence and celebrate the gift of light into which we are born? Sam and Fanny struggle through a relationship which is scarred by their separate, fractured pasts. Fanny never knew her mother, and Sam’s early life was almost ended by a racist Ku Klux Klan cop. Sam became obsessed with the need to bring justice to an unjust world. He felt compelled to travel the world and “execute” Nazis who had survived the war. Lena and Olaf met in Czechoslovakia at the time of the Nazi invasion. Their life together was a constant struggle to stay alive in a world filled with moral garbage. The events described in THE BLACK MOON are based on real people. Consider yourself lucky if you aren’t one of them. THE BLACK MOON is a warning.
