Forster, her work has slipped from view, though its sharp wit and moral urgency is strikingly contemporary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Moon is Making was inspired by, and set in, the town of Whitby. Told through the lens of the Wikker family, Jameson's searingly brilliant portrait of a fractured coastal community explores class division and emotional alienation in this rediscovered Northern novel from the 1930s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis brand new edition of a forgotten classic is introduced by Maxine Peake and illustrated by fellow Northerner, Alice Patullo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"The Moon Is Making is superior in technical skill and dramatic power. Miss Jameson is a writer worth watching.\" The New York Times, 1938\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Storm Jameson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57235955482997,"sku":"9781068661389","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/4075\/2426\/files\/9781068661389.jpg?v=1780076030","url":"https:\/\/sherlockandpages.com\/products\/the-moon-is-making-by-storm-jameson-9781068661389","provider":"Sherlock \u0026 Pages","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
