About This Book

A widower alarms his friends when he says he meets naked with a moon goddess in this "poignant and hilarious" novel by the author of Blackburn (Rocky Mountain News).

"Utterly charming. . . . A bodacious bombshell of a book that you can still respect in the morning. . . . Lunatics is like that one perfect unforgettable song that summons up a summer: breezy, sunstruck, joyous." —The Washington Post Book World

Jack has been widowed for close to a year, and his behavior has his friends worried. Arrested for public indecency, Jack insists that he was meeting a moon goddess of desire named Lily. Furthermore, he claims that she can only find him if he waits outside, naked under a full moon. To prevent further troubles with the law, Jack's friends begin taking him to a cabin in the woods each full moon. But one at a time, they are each touched by Lily and forced to deal with their desires before they can truly know their hearts.

"A delightful romantic fantasy . . . funny and touching." —The Denver Post

"Humorous, wise, witty and thoughtful. . . . Denton [writes] like a moonstruck angel. Pick this one up—you won't be disappointed." —San Antonion Express News
