The two main characters, Jack and Loni, are richly drawn, multi-faceted people with complex issues that bring them together and pull them apart. . . . This novel is full of riches, atmosphere and scenery, plot, excellent dialogue, and strong but flawed main characters delighted the senses of this reader.  Other reviewers have called A Face In The Moon, \"A Catcher In The Rye grown up.\" That very well may be true.  -- Michelle Tercha, at Selling Writing OnlineA Face in the Moon may be an eye-opener for readers not themselves of Jack Lohman's generation. -- Bob Koch, WXXI-FM RadioA Shakespearean-like tale with a twist. A story readers won't soon forget -- Patricia Ann Jones, Critic's Corner, August, 2001A fine read, and well worth your time. -- Denise M. Clark, The Road to Romance, March, 2003An emotionally deep story...[that] demonstrates Mitchell Waldman's tremendous talent for genuine characters in real life settings... -- Harriet Klausner, at, among other places, BookReview.comAn intense emotional, compelling read. . . a book that... everyone could enjoy reading, no matter what their usual preferences. -- Booknet, September, 2001Excellent read! Very highly recommended. A well written, entertaining work. -- Molly Martin, Scribes World, October, 2001Intensely introspective . . . spans a spectrum of emotions from ecstasy to despair . . . [does well] in mak[ing] an emotional connection with readers. -- P.J. Nunn, The Charlotte Austin Review, July, 2000It's a harsh reality to know what's in this book happens in real life. Read with open heart and mind. -- Lisa at the Book Review Cafe, April, 2002 Product Description The narrator of A FACE IN THE MOON, Jack Lohman, is an inexperienced twenty-two-year old, who was recently dumped by his first real girlfriend, and is soon to leave graduate school for who knows what. Enter Loni, a bright-eyed, free-spirited seventeen-year old who has had more than her share of experience. From the moment Jack meets Loni, his life begins to change. She teaches him how to laugh, and makes him feel, for perhaps the first time in his life, that he can be loved without judgment. Yet, ironically, it is Loni's harsh self-evaluation that paralyzes her at times, turning this carefree, uninhibited soul into a listless young woman who laments the days when life used to be more fun.  A FACE IN THE MOON is a story about two young lovers struggling to find each other and their ways in the world. And when a series of events keeps them apart longer than expected it becomes the story of whether their new love can survive the pressures of such separation.   About the Author In addition to A FACE IN THE MOON, Mitchell Waldman is the author of the short story collections, BROTHERS, FATHERS, AND OTHER STRANGERS (2021, Adelaide Books) and PETTY OFFENSES AND CRIMES OF THE HEART (Wind Publications, August 15, 2011, reprinted by Blue Lake Review, 2019).His stories, poetry, articles, and essays have appeared in numerous publications, including, among others, The Faircloth Review, The Battered Suitcase, Foliate Oak, Waterhouse Review, Eunonia Review, The Brooklyn Voice, The Big Stupid Review, The Houston Review, Milk Sugar, The Legendary, Litsnack, Connotation Press, Red Fez, Wind Magazine, Wilderness House Literary Review, Eclectic Flash, eFiction Magazine, Poetpourri, Mobius, The Hazmat Review, Poetry Motel, The Advocate, Desperate Act, The Rochester Times-Union, and in the anthologies, BEYOND LAMENT: POETS OF THE WORLD BEARING WITNESS TO THE HOLOCAUST (Northwestern University Press, 1998), AMERICA REMEMBERED (Virgogray Press, 2010), MESSAGES FROM THE UNIVERSE (iUniverse, 2002), LOOKING BEYOND (Scars Publications, 2011), PROMINENT PEN (Scars Publications, 2011), and GREEN (MLM, 2010).Waldman is also the Fiction Editor for Blue Lake Review (bluelakereview.weebly.com), and was co-editor (with Diana\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51944501477664,"sku":"NEW0595091075","price":26.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-face-in-the-moon-0595091075","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
