GREAT BRITAIN’S # 1 BESTSELLER

“A consummate entertainer…Maupin has created a funny, memorable character in Cadence Roth.”

—Edmund White, Times Literary Supplement

“An intensely enjoyable novel about friendship and prejudice: the dialogue is word perfect, the psychology laser fine, and there are some terrific jokes…but no synopsis can do justice to this glorious book.”

—David Profumo, Weekend Telegraph

“Maybe the Moon delights, amuses, moves and angers you with the lightest of touches. It is, as might be said of Cadence herself, a small masterpiece.”

—Simon Callow, Vogue

“What Armistead Maupin has done, with considerable poise, dash, and subversive wit, is to have created a convincing, bracing, jaunty voice for this doughty person…. An exhilarating and sometimes moving story.”

—Anthony Thwaite, Sunday Telegraph

“An affecting, very persuasive attack on bigotry in its subtlest and most insidious forms.”

—Jonathan Coe, Guardian

“The prose is airborne all right, and with Maupin at the controls you can be pretty sure that the in-flight entertainment will keep you enthralled till touchdown.”

—Anthony Quinn, Independent
