Reviews
"Deft, satisfying. . . . Keane writes in a realist vein-the vivid, domesticated world of Anne Tyler, of William Trevor, of Elizabeth Strout--but her insights into matters of the heart, longing and restlessness especially, have astonishing delicacy." -- Vogue , Most Anticipated Books of 2023 "Once again, Keane mines the family strife and secrecy that made her absorbing Ask Again, Yes one of the bigger book-club breakouts of the last several years. Here, a full marriage story is compressed within the span of a single week as charming, gregarious bartender Malcolm and his conscientious lawyer wife Jess confront the longtime fissures in their union and the many dreams deferred." -- Entertainment Weekly "Keane explores the sacrifices of a marriage, setting Malcolm's impulsive deal to buy the bar he loved against Jess's consuming dream of parenthood. . . . The tension is undeniable and deeply compelling . . . with an unexpected twist, Keane's charming, tautly-paced, and introspective novel will delight." -- Booklist (starred review) "Mary Beth Keane writes to the heart of the human heart. She shows us how love can deepen, how love can stall--hang in the sky like a half moon, waxing and waning in the same moment, equal parts shadow and light. I could not put this book down." -- Miranda Cowley-Heller , author of The Paper Palace "One of our finest writers on the interior complexities of marriage and family shines a flashlight on the intricate clockwork of love and longing that runs inside us. Because of the thoughtfulness of that examination, beauty and possibility are visible. I ran my finger over sentences while reading, thinking: 'Yes, exactly.' This kind of fiction allows us to look around our own lives with respect and kindness and is therefore a great gift." -- Ann Napolitano , author of Dear Edward " The Half Moon is one of those rare novels that feels simultaneously classic and contemporary. Mary Beth Keane writes with exquisite detail about a marriage and a hometown, and accomplishes something remarkable: she makes you care about every character and see their point of view. The Half Moon is about the choices we make in who we love and how we love and when we need to come to terms with the past. I could not stop reading." -- Vendela Vida, author of We Run the Tides "A quietly marvelous story of dreams, disappointments and second chances, but, mostly, love." -- Charmaine Wilkerson, author of Black Cake "I fell in love with The Half Moon from the first page, and barely looked up until I'd finished. Mary Beth Keane has written another brilliantly absorbing novel about complicated marriages and family dynamics--how they shape us, yes, but how they undo us as well. Prepare to lose yourself in this book." -- Sara Collins , author of The Confessions of Frannie Langton "The Half Moon is a masterful novel that tells with great tenderness how love goes wrong and how, with hope, it can be righted. Mary Beth Keane is an unnervingly talented novelist--dead-on brilliant, authentic, full of humor, and possessing a dark and comforting wisdom. The Half Moon is a triumph." -- Adrienne Brodeur , author of Wild Game, "Absorbing . . . it''s such a pleasure to sink into Keane''s quietly luminous prose . . . She manages to find the extraordinary grace in our achingly ordinary world." -- Janice Y.K. Lee, The New York Times Book Review "Poignant . . . class differences underlie personal strife as the couple struggles with adultery, fertility and civility." -- Bethanne Patrick, The Los Angeles Times "Deft, satisfying. . . . Keane writes in a realist vein-the vivid, domesticated world of Anne Tyler, of William Trevor, of Elizabeth Strout--but her insights into matters of the heart, longing and restlessness especially, have astonishing delicacy." -- Vogue , Most Anticipated Books of 2023 "An insightful, riveting study of marriage." -- People "A tale of midlife musings on second chances." -- TIME "Once again, Keane mines the family strife and secrecy that made her absorbing Ask Again, Yes one of the bigger book-club breakouts of the last several years. Here, a full marriage story is compressed within the span of a single week as charming, gregarious bartender Malcolm and his conscientious lawyer wife Jess confront the longtime fissures in their union and the many dreams deferred." -- Entertainment Weekly "I adored this compelling, touching, exquisitely crafted story about a marriage in crisis." --Liane Moriarty, New York Times bestselling author of Big Little Lies "Keane explores the sacrifices of a marriage, setting Malcolm''s impulsive deal to buy the bar he loved against Jess''s consuming dream of parenthood. . . .

    I ordered three items from this seller, and one was damaged in transit (the seller is not at fault for this). However the seller very quickly righted everything, communicating with me the entire time. The other two items were in perfect condition, arrived on time, and were exactly as described. They were very quick to fix what was wrong, and were very polite about the entire thing. I will be buying from them again in the future.

    The seller Orion Tech LLC is one of my occasional shopping sites. This purchase I had a problem, the only one so far. The books were packed well, shipped quickly and just as described. But this was not the book I ordered. I sent two photos of the book received and the ISBN code and I received a prompt refund. I bought two books the third book was free! I am still delighted being an Orion Tech Books customer and will be shopping at Orion Tech Books in the future. Thank you.
