The Boy in the Moon is a father's candid memoir about raising his son Walker, born with a rare genetic mutation. The narrative follows daily caregiving, medical uncertainty and a parent's attempt to understand a child who cannot speak.

Originally developed from a newspaper series, the book blends clear reportage with personal reflection. It examines the limits of diagnosis, the emotional weight of long-term care, and how a family adapts when usual expectations are upended.

Suitable for readers of medical memoirs, family narratives, and those interested in disability studies, the book offers compassionate insight into fatherhood, resilience and what it means to look inward while caring for another.

  • Themes: rare genetic condition, caregiving, fatherhood
  • Approach: memoir + journalistic observation
  • Publisher: Random House of Canada; paperback, 304 pages
