Charlie Moose is a morbidly obese failed soap opera writer. Charlie hasn’t moved from his bed in seven months. With the help of Simon, a friendless twelve-year-old boy, Charlie’s hoping to complete his masterpiece, The Importunation of Honey Blank — a novel loosely based on his obsession with an awkward stripper. If they can get past Simon’s mother, a wannabe sociopath, Charlie Moose just might finish the Greatest Great American Novel, and quite possibly, get out of bed.
Part comic book, part romance novel, part carnival, Charlie Moose Makes His Move is relentlessly funny and tragic. As it assaults the audience with unforgettable characters, both offensive and sympathetic, it asks the question, “How safe is our own imagination?”
