As the moon began to rust

by Sima B. Moussavian

In the year of the Corona pandemic, Helen wakes up one morning with an atomized heart. A week later, she throws herself off a cliff. What caused her heart to self-destruct? Her on-and-off relationship with the odd Tom? The circumstances of a global crisis? Or the alleged accident that killed her neighbour Paul a few days ago?

About the author

Born with a defect that is breathing words, Sima B. Moussavian has been a German ghostwriter and novelist since 2010. Her short stories were published in several German magazines. Since 2021 she has been publishing her work simultaneously in German and (as she would put it, not exactly perfect) English. She maintains a deeply passionate love hate relationship to Ireland, where she has been living part time since 2016. Although her writing has mostly been inspired by the beauty of the uncanny in modern works of authors like Charles Bukowski and Charles Bronson, her heart is black and beating for dark romanticism. Oh, and for Friedrich Nietzsche, of course. Whose in all the world isn't?
