Plot Synopsis
The Almost Moon is a story about a middle-aged woman who murders her elderly mother and enlists the help of her ex-husband.Critical Reception
- "Sebold's unblinking authorial gaze is her hallmark: where lesser writers would turn away from things too horrible to see or feel or admit, her scrutiny never wavers." - Time Magazine
- "Along with its buoying dark wit, it is this eerily familiar blurred line between sane and insane that makes "The Almost Moon" simultaneously uncomfortable and absorbing." - San Francisco Chronicle
- "Brilliantly paced, it's brutally honest, and the Gordian knot at its core is depicted with such generous intelligence that the fineness of the novel more than surpasses its own horror show of circumstance." - Boston Globe
