About the book: 2006 / Every Full Moon in Austin, Texas, rare passersby observe a completely naked man who looks hopefully at the Moon. This eccentric romantic Jack, in love with the Moon Goddess, is looking forward to a date. Jack's friends are alarmed: they suspect that the friend of their youth is slightly crazy. Very correct spouses Stephen and Katie, single mother Hallie, sarcastic beauty Carolyn with her young partner, brainless Artie - they all want to save Jack from madness and every Full Moon they look after him while he waits naked for his beloved in the moonlight. They are all rational people; for them the very existence of the Moon Goddess is a dangerous absurdity. However, the meeting of Lilith and Jack will irreversibly change not only both of them - the Goddess of Desire will be able to explain a lot to Jack’s friends, who are hopelessly confused in their relationships with each other, with the world and with themselves. Another question is what she herself will have to sacrifice. With each new book, Bradley Denton, winner of the World Fantasy Award and the John Campbell Award, proves that nothing is impossible for him. The novel “The Sleepwalkers,” a dizzying fairy tale for adults about friendship, love, sex and romance, is for the first time in Russian.
