In Defense of the Moth or A Meaningless Dance in Blinding Heat and Light 12+

📗 The Moon... It is said the moon can move people with its spell, as it does the water of the great oceans, and nobody understands this uncontrollable pull like Johnny Gomez. Johnny, despite being a devil-may-care fatalist, remains tethered to his reality only by a love for his children, his career and the moon-and not necessarily in that order. Dominated by a struggle with generalized anxiety disorder, Johnny's only outward distraction to life's standard challenges and the only relief for his lifelong affliction is his passion for the moon, which includes his obsessive independent study as well as his communal involvement in an astronomy society with a group of friends. That is until one night Johnny finds that the moon-- and with it his only method of self-medication-- no longer exists...but for him only and not anyone else.Or so it seems, and more than Johnny knows hinges on his rediscovery of the moon.
