The Wolf in the Blue Moon
“Night is falling and Moon is waiting in awareness. Far too aware. Riddled with shivers and pain. Moon doesn't think, she only follows instinct and pain; her memories are double locked in a lead casket. Sacred. She is in limbo; she has no place among the living, but is not altogether ready to die. As long as she still struggles.” Moon is a child.
A natural progression of her first two novels,
A Bat in the Attic and
A Monkey on your Back, Stephanie Benson pushes horror and compassion, fundamental to her view of the thriller, to their limits and chronicles devastated lives and the tragedy of bereavement.
Stephanie Benson was born in London in 1959 and has been living in France for the past twenty years. She worked in special education with children presenting behaviour problems and mentally handicapped adults, and with drug addicts, before becoming a full-time writer in French. Her books (over forty published novels) range from roman noir through modern fantasy and detective science-fiction works (the Epicur series) to Pynchon-type unclassables (Al teatro), and she has also published a certain number of children's books. She is translated into Italian and Czech. She lives in the south-west of France with husband and children, dog, cats, rabbits, hamster and lovebirds. Her first theatre piece has been played in October 2004.
