Upland Road is brilliant. Check this guy out!

Dr. Thomas Moore portrays in UPLAND ROAD a heart-wrenching, and tragic suffering, accompanied by the errotic, the humorous, the drive for power, and the thirst for love and acceptance... and the near-impossibility to balance these conflicts and stay sane... He is a name to be reckoned with, when one thinks of contemporary literature. If one wants to get to the core of any matter that is to be understood one will revel in reading Thomas A. Moore's books. One will not find any elaborations, introductions, euphemisms or romanticism. The matter of the subject will be encountered directly matter of factly but with known and unknown depths of meaning and maturity. Yes! Every chapter of Dr. Thomas Moore leaves one with a higher level of maturity and understanding. Reading Dr. Thomas Moore's writings is like someone holding a mirror in front of you. The truth is freightening and at the same time fascinating due to its starkness. One gets a feeling of ones mind getting peeled of all the dressings, 'feel good' layers, hypocricies, euphemisms in pursuit of reality and undersatanding of the human condition. The naked truth that is left behind is highly disturbing, funny, enfuriating, and at the same time it is enlightening and utterly difficult to ignore. Dr. Thomas Moore's story engulfs you right from the first sentence and then starts the roller coaster of eye opening emotions and in the end one is left gasping for breath. One cannot but admire the meaningful content and higher levels of understanding. One feels more mature from reading his work. The style of Dr. Thomas Moore is concise and straightforward. One cannot miss its honesty and authenticity. The sentences are short and simple, but varied with some long and complex. No subject or character is taboo to him. He does not stick to any form. The content is very open and encompasses a larger horizon. He sees things always on a wider perspective and thus his conflicts are more with social implications and do not limit themselves to individual experiences or problems. His style is so frank that it is shocking. It challenges the traditional expectations of literature. In that sense he is modern and bluntly realistic. He definitely succeeds in bringing one out of one's safe shell and makes one look at the world with open eyes and more understanding. Dr. Thomas Moore is a very rare combination of a successful professional writer and businessperson. His books have won prestigious literary awards, and although a young writer for such ultimate recognition, he has already won a lifetime award for his body of literature. Brilliantly varied in theme, character, and action, his books are unified and illuminated by the great subject of Dr. Thomas Moore's work: his profound, compassionate, and philosophically inspired vision of the human condition. He is acutely sensitive to the uncertainties, complexities, contradictions, and the apparently endless suffering of life--for everyone. What also gives his writing t

Blow me away why don't you!

So original, yet I believe it does happen. Wow!

Brilliant and Compelling!

One of the most honestly written books I have read in a long time!

LITERARY FEST

The charcter studies are exceptional, as are the poetic descriptions of emotion and scene. The desire to bolster together and the compulsion to head for the hills are my conflicting reactions to this wrenching drama. This book has changed my awareness of so much.
