'Evelyn went to the third drawer down in her dresser. It was her drawer of things past . . . she had an item from each of her previous lives. Evelyn was good at reinventing herself, becoming who she was going to be next, but she still kept one thing from each life. Never two.' For Evelyn, mornings pass as mornings always do. She ticks off the jobs at the laundromat and gives welcoming smiles to those who come in. If they've earned one. Evelyn knows what is going on in her community because she pays attention. She sees the weariness of the frazzled shop owners, the woman with the nasty boyfriend, the nice man with the curly-topped dog, the car parking war and the forgetful man. The community might not notice Evelyn, because it is easy to overlook the seemingly ordinary. But Evelyn is far from ordinary. She isn't afraid to put things right, and is always ready to find lost property or lost people - even if that means breaking the rules. For a boy with a struggling mum, and a lonely man with a smile in his eyes, Evelyn is going to make a difference, whether they like it or not. She will teach them that you don't have to be blood to be family. And they will remind her of what comes from loving someone. It is up to Evelyn if she can pay the price. With a joyous and unique touch, Hilde Hinton's extraordinary novel A Solitary Walk on the Moon gives us an insight into the people we pass on the street. In detailing their rich lives, she breaks then mends our hearts with her wisdom, her insight and her unforgettable characters who remind us what can happen if we stop and say hello. Praise for A Solitary Walk on the Moon 'Hinton has gifted us a tale of community, wisdom and beautiful heart' - Courier Mail 'One of those rare and lovely books that instantly transports you into its pages, where what seems a deceptively simple premise for a story unfurls into a rich and complex tapestry filled with life and emotion' - Readings 'For fans of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine and Olive Kitteridge, Hilde Hinton's A Solitary Walk on the Moon brings rich insight into the everyday' - Harper's Bazaar 'A beautiful treatise on loneliness in big cities where people are everywhere but fail to connect' - The AU Review 'Skilfully wrought and delivered both with sparkling, wry humour and utter pathos' - Living Arts Canberra Praise for Hilde Hinton 'Hinton has an ear for dialogue and an eye for detail, but her work's greatest asset is its heart. Her moving, well-realised debut [The Loudness of Unsaid Things] introduces a promising Australian writer.' - Australian Book Review

_________________________ THE ESSENTIAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE SECOND MAN ON THE MOON _________________________ 'Thrilling ... years on, the raw facts of the adventure remain beguiling and the bravery of the astronauts compelling' - SUNDAY TIMES 'Exciting and moving' - DAILY EXPRESS _________________________ Buzz Aldrin, one of the three men who took part in the first moon landing in 1969, is a true American hero. Magnificent Desolation begins with the story of his voyage into space, which came within seconds of failure, and reveals a fascinating insider's view of the American space programme. But that thrilling adventure was only the beginning, as Aldrin battled with his own desolation in the form of depression and alcoholism. This epic journey encompasses the brutally honest tale of Aldrin's self-destruction, and the redemption that came through finding love when hope seemed lost. _________________________ 'Buzz Aldrin might not have been the first man to walk on the Moon, but of all the astronauts to have been there, none of them has articulated their predicament with quite such wisdom and sensitivity' - MAIL ON SUNDAY

Falling in love feels like floating. Gravity loosens its ties on your feet and you fly. Everything that makes sense is illogical. You find yourself rushing towards a feeling, a pull you can't quite explain, but you love how light you feel, you love where you're going, and you're okay with not looking back down at earth for reassurance. Ry Reed's WALKING ON THE MOON is romantic bliss. A timeless tale about falling hopelessly in love.
