The symbology and influence of the moon throughout our history are as wide as they are diverse, as old as they are current. And there are infinite paths that can be taken around this star that has always been there, witness and part of development of civilizations.

Joachim Kalka presents in this book a landscape as erudite as personal that orbits around the moon; It includes notes and reflections on science, philosophy, literature and different artistic expressions ranging from painting, sculpture and poetry, to more recent ones such as cinema or comics.

The author immerses us in free and hypnotic associations that, with fluidity and naturalness, intertwine biblical, astronomical and astrological approaches to the moon, its symbolism, mythology and legends, but also places it as the protagonist of great milestones in history such as the arrival of the man to the moon or the profound influence that meant in the work and thought of great authors. An exciting and polyhedral text, always unfinished, about this mysterious and mutable cosmic entity.
