Sinopsis

'If Tom Waits were a novelist, heâÇÖd write like Walter Moore. Gravelly and soulful,áThe Phalanx of Houstonáis a bigheartedánoveláof barrooms, back alleys, and one manâÇÖs search for a lost friend.'áááá-John Larison,áWhiskey When WeâÇÖre Dry, Northwest of Normalá'BjornâÇÖs return home is a funny and fast-paced few days in the musical and bleary-eyed corners of Houston. As he tries to sort out why his old friend died, he discovers that we never truly sever ourselves from family, from the place we were raised, and from the aftermath of the things weâÇÖve done.áThe Phalanx of Houstonáis an irreverent, razor-sharp, and deliriously entertaining ride.'áááá-Keith Scribner,áOld Newgate Road, The GoodLifeá'Walter MooreâÇÖs debutánoveláshould be on every table of every coffee shop andáon every countertop of any Houston bar that is worth a damn.áWhen Bjorn is called home to southeastáTexas because of a friendâÇÖs early death, he leaves no urinal cake unturned in his search for reason. With imperfect, soulful characters and a keen sense of this strange, underwritten about city,áPhalanxáis worth the weekend trip. ItâÇÖll have you reading on the toilet again. And in the line at H.E.B. And in bed with a candle or the lightáfrom a Marlboro to guide the way. It should come with a warning sticker: Poetically poor for your health.'áááá¡-Jesse Donaldson,áThe More They Disappear, On Homesicknessá'Walter Moore has crafted an inspired, smoke-soaked tumble-quest of aánovel. A twisted, beat-noir misadventure through the darkest dives of Houston, Texas, that manages to be irreverent, poetic, heart-rich, and funny as hell. Thisábookásings!'ááááááááááááááááááááááááááá-Owen Egerton,áHollow, How Best to Avoid Dyingá
