The Man Who Fell in Love with the Moon

The Man Who Fell in Love with the Moon

"The Man Who Fell In Love With The Moon" is Tom Spanbauer's second and arguably most famous novel.

In this narration by Native American bisexual male prostitute Out-There-In-The-Shed (or simply Shed), the other colorful characters who live in or pass by a small-town whorehouse run by imperious Ida Richelieu are introduced.

The novel is a quest for Shed, of unclear Native American roots and total bisexuality, to find his place in the world. Shed, Ida and the other characters find themselves in trouble when Mormons, with their moralist attitudes, settle in their town.

While the author himself defines his style as "Dangerous Writing", the book could well be considered in the tradition of magical realism.

"The Man Who Fell In Love With The Moon" was first published in 1992.
