In Their Arms

Taking place across a mutating set of darkrooms, art galleries, blank apartments and bedrooms; In Their Arms is an acute inspection of loneliness, desire and confusion. The narrator attempts to simultaneously find himself and become lost completely in a world of sex, internet hook-ups, drugs and pleasure. Within the arms of nameless and unknown lovers, a strange, often conflicted spirituality is hinted at. In Thomas Moore's second novel, he uses a deft and purposely layered prose to create a grey area of illusions and smokescreens, where needs and fears entwine, often becoming the same thing. In Their Arms is a disturbingly seductive assault from one of the most exciting new voices in experimental fiction. 2016 Beachie Award Winner for Best Representation of the Brutality of Living Alone Through Social Media
