Words at Wagstaffe: Space Oddity

Space Oddity

David Dyer in conversation with Benny Agius

This Kingdom of Dust by David Dyer explores a harrowing and fascinating scenario in which the 1969 moon-landing is a success, but the lunar module is damaged and cannot bring the astronauts back to the shuttle. The story is explored through the intertwined narratives of three characters: Buzz on the Moon, his wife Joan back on Earth, and Aquarius, the journalist assigned to write the story in order to redeem himself. Sit in to hear more about this gripping literary page-turner that manages to plumb unexpected emotional depths.
