Many stories have been written about the sixties, the decade of the
Moon Race, and this literary novel, serious at its core but
whimsical in its prose, takes a unique look at the fate of the moon
during that decade. Samuel Thwaite is looking for a place to put
his stamp on. He chooses Goodmews, a laid-back American town known
for its bright moon, and persuades the residents to let him
establish the world's first Moon Centre. NASA funds the Centre, and
while Goodmews thrives, Thwaite becomes obsessed with achieving
something grander, that will last forever. He enlists a rogue NASA
engineer, and together they develop a plan. They will use a moon
rocket to spread paint over a giant crater so the moon will no
longer look white. By chance, Banno, the Moon Centre guard,
discovers the plan. He knows he should tell someone, but he has
signed NASA's oath of secrecy, and prides himself on keeping his
word.
