Beneath the Moon and Long Dead Stars - Paperback

In the dazzling flash fictions of Beneath the Moon and Long Dead Stars, lives are altered in what appear to be minor moments: an unlatched lock, an old photo, a light left on too long. But in the care of acclaimed novelist Daniel Wallace, those details constellate into something mysterious and magical. The drifter who is mistaken for a movie star, an old woman who sits on the roof of her house to smoke her secret cigarette, a man building a coffin for his wife-- the men and women in these stories, hungry for connection, often find that everything hangs on a gust of wind or a single word. Beneath the Moon and Long Dead Stars tenderly navigates the shadows, inviting readers to take comfort. There's plenty of light left.
