Excerpt from The Evolution of Peter Moore To anyone who knew Peter Moore casually it would have seemed a far stretch of the imagination to connect him in any possible degree with the bright lights and Lobster Palaces of the Great White Way. That his love story, as well as his war story, should have such a setting, as only New York, with its cabarets, its Lounge Lizards and its Broadway can give, was almost laughingly incongruous. That all these things, as well as many others, went into the make-up of his strangely complicated married life, and stalked boldly through it, is almost incredible. It is equally hard to understand his marriage to the small-town girl who was willing not only to barter her very soul for pleasure, but Peter's soul as well, and who for the sake of the flesh pots repudiated the man whom she had set out to win. Of course Peter Moore had his fling at the great world war but in no sense are his experiences in No Man's Land to become the theme of this story.
