"An insightful, riveting study of marriage." --People From the
bestselling author of Ask Again, Yes, a masterful and "absorbing"
(The New York Times) novel about a couple in a small town
navigating the complexities of marriage, family, and longing.
Malcolm Gephardt, handsome and gregarious longtime bartender at the
Half Moon, has always dreamed of owning a bar. When his boss
finally retires, Malcolm stretches to buy the place. He sees
unquantifiable magic and potential in the Half Moon and hopes to
transform it into a bigger success, but struggles to stay afloat.
His smart and confident wife, Jess, has devoted herself to her law
career. After years of trying for a baby, she is facing the idea
that motherhood may not be in the cards for her. Like Malcolm, she
feels her youth beginning to slip away and wonders how to reshape
her future. "A quick and impactful read that will stay with you
long after you finish it" (theSkimm), The Half Moon takes place
over the course of one week when Malcolm learns shocking news about
Jess, a patron of the bar goes missing, and a blizzard hits the
town of Gillam, trapping everyone in place. With a deft eye and
generous spirit, Mary Beth Keane explores the disappointments and
unexpected consolations of midlife, the many forms forgiveness can
take, the complicated intimacy of small-town living, and what it
means to be a family.

The melodramatic and romantic cliche s that pervade popular
conceptions of working-class Londoners in the 19th and 20th century
are debunked in this innovative expose of proletariat London. The
individual stories of muted historical figures, including an
illiterate silk weaver, a grandmother in an asylum, a deserted
family, an abused daughter, and a dead child, are brought to light
through interpretations of the scraps they left behind-- gravestone
inscriptions, photographs and certificates, the grimy contents of
hidden cubbyholes, and even childhood recollections that have been
passed down through the generations. The unusual contents of these
stories intertwine to evoke a haunting and original picture of
working-class London that adds a much-needed, though bleak facet to
the city's social history.
