Flak Jacket
A drive to drug rehab, at least two murders, one escaped prisoner, a complex father/son relationship, and several highly unusual classroom experiences form the backbone of Flak Jacket, Gerald Arthur Moore's latest collection of his signature explosive poetry. Step inside to become entranced, but be prepared to be blown away, because we're going for a ride.
Am I Too Loud?
Famous British accompanist recalls his association with singers, violinists, and others. Includes many anecdotes, praise where it is due, and some remarks on artistic temperament.
Shatter the Glass, Shards of Flame
Shatter the Glass, Shards of Flame contains a wide array of narrative and confession-lyric poems written over the last fifteen years, examining the various joys and tragedies, the losses and redemptions, of the poet's life. These poems span a diverse range of Moore's experience, from his time in the Canadian military and on humanitarian work projects in Haiti, to travelling the storied avenues of Oxford University and working with young offenders on the hardscrabble streets of Moncton.
Politics of the Gift
Gerald Moore shows how the problematic of the gift drives and illuminates the last century of French philosophy. By tracing the creation of the gift as a concept, from its origins in philosophy and the social sciences, right up to the present, Moore shows
Stiegler and Technics
These 17 essays covers all aspects of Bernard Stiegler's work, from poststructuralism, anthropology and psychoanalysis to his work on the politics of memory, 'libidinal economy', technoscience and aesthetics, keeping a focus on his key theory of technics throughout. Stiegler brings together key concepts from Plato, Freud, Derrida and Simondon to argue that the human is 'invented' through technics rather than a product of purely biological evolution. Stiegler is a thinker at the forefront of our contemporary concerns with consumerism, technology, inter-generational division, political apathy and economic crisis. His ambitious project is to go beyond these sources of social distress to uncover and examine precisely 'what makes life worth living'. Contributors include: Stephen Barker, University of California Irvine and translator of Steigler; Richard Beardsworth, American University of Paris and translator of Stiegler; Miguel de Beistegui; University of Warwick; Marc Crepon, Ecole normale superieure and co-founder of Stiegler's think tank, Ars Industrialis and Daniel Ross, co-director of 'The Ister', the award-winning film on Heidegger, and translator of Stiegler.

When Orpheus sang, Gerald Moore reminds us, the trees and the mountaintops bowed their heads, plants and flowers blossomed. Can any man-made instrument pierce the heart so directly as the human voice? But the accompanying lute, as he characteristically points out, is not introduced as an afterthought: 'Everything that heard him play, even the billows of the sea hung their heads'. Everyone familiar with Gerald Moore's partnership at the piano with so many great singers during his long career as the most distinguished accompanist of the century will be glad that Shakespeare made the point. Since retiring from the concert platform, Gerald Moore has given us two incomparable books containing his...
