Nathaniel G. Moore

Nathaniel G. Moore is a Canadian writer. He was born in Toronto, Ontario, on 15th July, 1974.[1] Moore's latest poetry collection is Constrictor, published by Toronto's Mansfield Press. The book details sexual abuse that Moore experienced as a teenager in Leaside during the early 1990s.[2] His collection of essays, Honorarium, was recently published by Palimpsest Press. In Moore's work, the personal is always at the forefront of his narrative. In Savage 1986–2011, his third novel, Moore draws upon his childhood obsession with pro wrestler Randy “Macho Man” Savage, who died of a heart attack in 2011. The novel outlines a dysfunctional and downwardly mobile family with an alcoholic father and an alienated mother. The Globe and Mail has described his style as a cocktail mix of William S. Burroughs and Hunter S. Thompson. Moore has appeared on CBC radio discussing his love of books and Canadian publishing.[3]
