E.B. Moore

E. B. Moore grew up in a Pennsylvania on a Noah’s ark farm, the red barn stabling animals two-by-two, along with a herd of Cheviot sheep. Her first novel, AN UNSEEMLY WIFE, based on stories handed down by her Amish grandmother, follows the family as they attempt westward migration in a covered wagon, risking both body and soul as they struggle to survive close contact with the "English." Stones in the Road, her second novel, is based her grandfather’s early life. As a runaway at eleven, he is presumed dead by his secretly abusive father, but his mother fights what she’s told is God’s will and her growing suspicion of her husband’s hand in her son’s disappearance. This novel comes out 10/6/15. E. B. received full fellowships to The Vermont Studio Center and Yaddo. She is the mother of three, the grandmother of five, and lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
