The number one international bestseller by the author of Tales of the City<BR><BR>'Wonderful, funny, poignant and gutsy' Mademoiselle<BR>'Scathingly funny, haunting...Maupin enlightens, entertains and empowers his readers' Atlanta Journal<BR>'Highly funny and deeply poignant...With a heartfelt resonance few male writers ever accomplish' Boston Herald<BR>'Perfectly pitched and heartbreaking. There hasn't been a funnier, or sadder, novel this year' Entertainment Weekly<BR>__________<BR><BR>All of thirty-one inches tall, Cadence (Cady) Roth is a true survivor in a town where - as she says - 'you can die of encouragement'. Her early leading role as a lovable elf in a smash-hit American film proved a major disappointment since moviegoers never saw the face behind the rubber mask. After a decade of hollow promises from the Industry, she is still waiting for the miracle that will make her a star.<BR>From her infrequent meetings with agents and studio moguls to her regular, harrowing encounters with small children, large dogs and human ignorance, we track our spunky heroine across the saffron-hazed wasteland of Los Angeles. Then one day a lanky piano player saunters into Cady's life, unleashing heady new emotions, and she finds herself going for broke, shooting the moon with a scheme so hare-brained and daring that it just might succeed...<BR><BR>Maybe the Moon is the poignant and moving tale of an outsider told from the inside which eloquently speaks to the resilience of the human spirit.
