Days by Moonlight

Botanist Alfred Homer, ever hopeful and constantly surprised, is invited on a road tripby his parents' friend, Professor Morgan Bruno, who wants company as he tries tounearth the story of the mysterious poet John Skennen. But this is no ordinary roadtrip. Alfred and the Professor encounter towns where Black residents speak only insign language and towns that hold Indigenous Parades: it is a land of house burnings,werewolves, and witches.

Complete with Alfred's drawings of plants both real and implausible, Days byMoonlight is a Dantesque journey taken during the 'hour of the wolf,' that time of daywhen the sun is setting and the traveller can't tell the difference between dog andwolf. And it asks that perpetual question: how do we know the things we know arereal, and what is real anyway?
