About the Book

He Runs the Moon is a collection of wonderfully atmospheric stories set in the rundown Capitol Hill area of Denver in the early 1970s, in the Bronx, New York, during the 1950s & 60s and in the Boston area in the 1970s.Brandmark, a great storyteller in the American tradition, draws you in. Take the Denver stories which form a narrative of a Gothic city populated by people who feel they don’t quite belong. In one story female creative writing students are all secretly in love with their professor, but does he register them at all? Figures from the `old world’ haunt the children and adults in the Jewish community of New York City. A troubled granny with a head that is bothering her, and the `witch’ in the basement flat, who has strange dark marks on her lower arm, and comes to the rescue when a child is lost.In the Boston tales characters piece together dreams from the fragments of their lives. Be transported, for example, to the occupational hazards of sharing rooms in a dull green clapboard house which seemed to pitch and heave.
