Plot summary
editThe moon transforms into an unstable organic, cheese-like material, along with all previously retrieved lunar samples. The book follows the diverse human reactions to this possibly apocalyptic event on Earth through the course of a whole lunar cycle.[1][2]
Reception
editIn a starred pre-publication review, Kirkus Reviews characterizes the event related in the book as a "ridiculous concept imbued with gravity, charm, humor, plausible cynicism, and pathos—and perhaps the merest touch of spite."[2]
