How can an anxious, extraordinary revolution run itself aground? How can a bunch of pirates hanging out under some rocks overturn the order of all things? How little bag can one man have? We dig into these questions and more in one of the most singular and majestic chapters of Unjust Depths, The Moon Under The Mountain.
To read along, you can find the novel, both online chapter by chapter and as handy epub downloads, at unjustdepths.com.
