Clair Knightly and her daughter Helen are
locked in a relationship so unrelenting that it has sucked the air out of both their lives.And as this electrifying novel
opens,Helen crosses a line she never dreamt she would even approach.But while her act is almost unconscious,it also seems like the fulfilment of a lifetime's buried desire.
Over the next twenty-four hours,Helen's life rushes in at her as she confronts the
choices that have brought her to this crossroads.A woman who has spent a lifetime trying to win the love of a mother who had none to spare,she now faces an uncertain and dangerous freedom.
In 'The Almost Moon',Sebold expores the complex ties within families,the meaning of devotion and the fragility of the boudary that separates us from our darkest
impulses.This is an unforgettable novel,a
raw and powerful story,written with the clarity and insight that only Alice Sebold
can bring to the page.
