BLACK MOON - Kenneth Calhoun
‘…a black moon had risen, a sphere of sleeplessness that pulled at the tides of blood—and invisible explanation for the madness welling inside.’
Kenneth Calhoun’s dark, hallucinatory and brilliantly realised debut from Hogarth books imagines a world without sleep. A world driven to the brink of exhaustion. A waking nightmare.
Designed in-house, an owl mask worn by one of the survivors is the inspiration for the final cover, and also helps to represent a world made hallucinatory and delirious with lack of sleep. The eye of the owl also echoes the 'Black Moon’ of the title.
Black Moon will be published by Hogarth in March.
