Moon Babies

By Dana Lynn Furgerson

Abbie does not intend to cause neighborhood upheaval when she begins her affair on the night of a late December full moon, but this rash decision leads her down that very path. To escape her guilt, she joins her friend Windsong in her moon rituals, and they soon become so entangled with her life that she finds herself wondering if the moon is at least partly responsible for what she and all humans do. And if the moon could cause passions to wax and wane and irrationality to rule an otherwise sane mind, then maybe, just maybe, it absolves her of a certain amount of guilt. She is drawn into the intricacies of the lives of the ten dysfunctional families who live along her dead end lane in a forested part of Eugene, Oregon, and feels compelled to help them. But her attempts to improve their lives push strained relationships in unexpected directions and cause a cascade of consequences. Moon Babies occurs between the spring and fall equinoxes and weaves folk beliefs about the moon into neighborhood lives. Under the moon's soft glow reality shifts and shimmers, and guilt has no place.
