Amy is a 30-something lesbian who left her small-town home to live in the city with her lover. When she finally returns to visit the people she has left behind, she discovers that her old friends Gina and Gavin dissociate from their pasts in extreme ways that rival her own-Amy's tendency toward self-mutilation parallels both Gavin's anorexia and Gina's distanced attitude toward life. As past and present collide, Amy finds that she must reconcile her long-standing attraction to Gina as well as her past sexual experimentation with Gavin. Half-Moon Scar is written in simple, straightforward language that belies its complexity as it examines the scars-both emotional and physical, visible and invisible-that pervade the lives of these three still-unresolved adults.
