WINNER! 2014 ReLitĀ AWARDĀ (NOVELĀ CATEGORY)
Nateā€™s nervous mother chews gum at warp speed and has a bob that resembles Darth Vaderā€™s helmet. His icy father dabbles part-time in the death trade at a funeral home after working for a decade in the insurance racket. His older sister Holly is always lurking in the shadows or away at school. Nate, a creative, messy, and anxious teen, has chosen Randy Savage as his hero. As he finishes high school, the world to which Savage belongs is quickly waning in popularity, and Nate begins to see the wrestlerā€™s downfall mirrored in his own life. But not until the family dismantles for good in 1994 does Nateā€™s life truly begin to fracture.
Savage 1986-2011Ā chronicles the middle-class implosion of Nateā€™s nuclear family, bracketed by July 1986 ā€” when he first saw Randy Savage in person ā€” and the wrestlerā€™s sudden death in May 2011. When Savage dies, Nate is freed from beliefs ā€” once a source of beauty and escape ā€” that had come to constrict him, fusing him to a moribund past.
The novel is about the blurred lines between child and adult roles and the ever-changing landscape of interior heroism. Whether dealing with a familyā€™s economic turbulence, the scarring effects of teenage love, or creating a new family order, Moore revisits, remasters, and repackages a twenty-five year family odyssey with guts, honesty, and love.
ADVANCEĀ PRAISEĀ FORĀ SAVAGEĀ 1986-2011
ā€œThis isĀ Running Backwards with Scissors in Leaside. Nathaniel G. Mooreā€™s emotional atomic drops and body slams in Savage (1986-2011) put the nuke in nuclear family. Moore writes in Technicolorā„¢ ā€” heā€™s a poet of fractured reality, minstrel of meltdown, clown prince of sad suburban absurdity.ā€ ā€“Zsuzsi Gartner, author ofĀ Better Living Through Plastic Explosives
ā€œMoore does something quite large here. He builds that cardboard box in your basement. The one filled with things youā€™ve forgotten, or tried to. You donā€™t want to open it but once you do you find it quite impossible to close or to forget. Much like the too tight, just right words youā€™ll find inĀ Savage 1986-2011, reflecting a world which now cannot be unbuilt. This is familiar country visited in a brand new way. Open the box.ā€ ā€“Michael Blouin, author of the award-winningĀ Chase and Haven
ā€œAuthor Nathaniel G. Moore presents an inter-generational family saga so remote from the tropes overworked by fellow Canadian authors that one hesitates to even label it a ā€˜novelā€™ ā€“ a word, for me, poisoned by too many visits to the cow barn (and the silent, fraught-with-baking-eulogies kitchen table).ā€ ā€“RM Vaughan, author ofĀ Spells
ā€œLike one of those albums you canā€™t stop playing,Ā SavageĀ is immediately catchy, thrilling and electric with an honest beauty and wild energy. Nathaniel Moore brings us on a journey into a hidden world of secret lovers, cool sisters, morgues, wrestlers and exorcisms that shimmers and ignites behind the facades of ordinary suburbia. This book is a great read, but itā€™s also an insightful, moving look at a family and society on the verge of collapse.ā€ ā€“Rebecca Godfrey, author ofĀ The Torn Skirt
REVIEWERSĀ ONĀ SAVAGE ā€œā€¦cringe-inducingly honest and uncommonly brave ā€¦Ā SavageĀ succeeds best as a showcase for Mooreā€™s convulsively unbridled prose acrobatics. Like a punch-drunk anti-Hemingway, he tosses around verbiage like Pollock flung paint: promiscuously, recklessly. ā€¦ Thereā€™s little joy in what he describes, but much joy ā€” and improbable gobs of humour ā€” in the describing.ā€ ā€“Broken Pencil
