*Longlisted for the 2019 Exeter Novel PrizeA strange twist of fate connects a British soldier fighting
in the First World War in 1916 with a young woman living in modern-day England a century later,
in this haunting literary time travel novel.Two people, two battles: one against the invading
Germans on the battlefields of 1916 France, the other against a substandard, uncaring mental
health facility in modern-day England. Part war story, part timeslip, part love story – and at the
same time a meditation on the themes of war, mental illness, identity and art, Beyond The Moon is
an intelligent, captivating debut novel, perfect for book clubs."Taylorâ€s accomplished, genrebending
book succeeds as a WW1 historical novel and a beguiling, time travel love story... The
sharply written narrative deftly moves back and forth between the past and present." — Kirkus
Reviews "Historical fantasy at its very best." — Historical Novel Society"*Shortlisted for the
Eharmony/Orion Love Story Prize 2019“An unflinching portrait of the horrors of war, and a look
at the torturous extremes a human soul can endure. It is a sonnet to the transformative power of
love, even as it is also a criticism of the futility and pointless destructiveness of war." — Shaylin
Gandhi, author of By The Light of EmbersIn 1916 1st Lieutenant Robert Lovett is a patient at
Coldbrook Hall military hospital in Sussex, England. A gifted artist, heâ€s been wounded fighting
in the Great War. Shell shocked and suffering from hysterical blindness he can no longer see his
own face, let alone paint, and life seems increasingly hopeless. A century later in 2017, medical
student Louisa Casson has just lost her beloved grandmother – her only family. Heartbroken,
she drowns her sorrows in alcohol on the South Downs cliffs – only to fall accidentally part-way
down. Doctors fear she may have attempted suicide, and Louisa finds herself involuntarily
admitted to Coldbrook Hall – now a psychiatric hospital, an unfriendly and chaotic place.Then
one day, while secretly exploring the old Victorian hospitalâ€s ruined, abandoned wing, Louisa
hears a voice calling for help, and stumbles across a dark, old-fashioned hospital room. Inside,
lying on the floor, is a mysterious, sightless young man, who tells her he was hurt at the Battle of
the Somme, a WW1 battle a century ago. And that his name is Lieutenant Robert Lovett…For
fans of Kate Quinn, Sebastian Faulks, Diana Gabaldon, Ken Follett, Kristin Hannah, Susanna
Kearsley and Paullina Simons.*NB Contains graphic descriptions of war violence and injuries, as
well as profanity and mild sex.
