Book Deal: “The Progress of Man” by Dr. Thomas Moore. Email Alphar Publishing for Advance Copy.

"Dr. Moore recognizes himself in the persona of Dubya, and so is drawn to exploring the character, as a surrogate for modern manhood… A fun book: A presidential family is psycho-analysed, apocryphal for the environment and future politicians." Publisher's Review.

Book Deal: “The Progress of Man” by Dr. Thomas Moore. Email Alphar Publishing for Advance Copy.
Manhattan, NY, December 22, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Alphar Publishing has signed a deal for “The Progress of Man.” Thomas Moore says he likes Dubya. “As a character he feels like living in my own skin: There are two ways of measuring the progress of man, from within or from without... There is an effective objective method for comprehending man's progress, and that is by way of exploring my own progress, or more objectively, by exploring someone that I know well, such as the persona of Dubya.”

“The Progress of Man” is a camp romp within the Republican Party about conflict between Dubya and “We The People”, both struggling with internal crises. Dubya loves his wife, Liberty Bell, but a tragic dysfunction has sprung from Dubya’s relationship with his God, and his nemesis; “We The People”. 

"We the People” repeatedly elect Dubya to vent our parochial desires while the environment decays. There is a comedic vein: Dubya completes the resolution of his inner conflicts by joining another secret society, the Knitting Club, a radical men’s group. Dubya appoints the director, Muleskinner, to run the country and contracts Al Gore to wage war on the environment, while he takes Liberty on a second honeymoon to a fall-out shelter. Our self-destructive traits are probed within this biographical portrait of our Dubya.

Dr. Moore’s comedic satire achieves an insight that adds to our progress, offers a pathway to survival, and might be used as a tool for evaluation of and by future politicians.

"Dubya’s character, as one who knows, is cast cleverly against his partner, Liberty Bell, a modern woman who is a natural foil. Images of conflict between socially privileged versus deprived arise with a sense of the  psycho-sexual, and what is brilliant about this book is the way Dr. Moore gets inside the establishment to chide the antagonist, “We The People”, and imparts a strong sense of humanity to the Dubya character's flaws and burdens."-Publisher's review.

Upland Road (9780978602420), about the redemption of a drunkard’s sensitive daughter, who is already haunted by grim sexual memories. She is determined to marry well. Lillian awakes from the drugs and just has to tell Dylan, her love, that she had aborted his child.

Natalie, the limbo child of her nightmares already exists too close to her, demanding attention now.
