Critics Review

There is no clue in the deliberately obscure title as to just how good this book is … An excellent and unpreachy chance to learn how the [civil rights] movement affected ordinary women.

There is no clue in the deliberately obscure title as to just how good this book is … An excellent and unpreachy chance to learn how the [civil rights] movement affected ordinary women. - Daily Mail on THE SUPREMES AT EARL’S ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT

Throughout the Supremes’ intertwined stories is one constant - meeting and eating at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat, a place where relationships are forged, scandals are aired and copious amounts of chicken are consumed … A novel of strong women, evocative memories and deep friendship. - Kirkus on THE SUPREMES AT EARL’S ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT

This beautifully written debut novel is a delightful tribute to friendship, full of wit and warmth and with a quirky twist - Candis on THE SUPREMES AT EARL’S ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT

About The Author

Edward Kelsey Moore

Edward Kelsey Moore is the author of the bestselling The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat, and lives in Chicago with his partner of many years. Having trained with some of the world’s finest musicians, he has travelled widely and recorded extensively during his lengthy career as a professional cellist.

Edward’s literary work often reflects both his life as a musician and his upbringing as the backsliding son of a Baptist preacher. His short fiction has appeared in several literary magazines and on Public Radio. Like Dora in The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat, Edward is also an avid gardener; like Odette, his horticultural projects are not always successful.
