Moore came from a Roman Catholic landed family who lived at Moore Hall in Carra, County Mayo. He originally wanted to be a painter, and studied art in Paris during the 1870s. There, he befriended many of the leading French artists and writers of the day. As a naturalistic writer, he was amongst the first English-language authors to absorb the lessons of the French realists, and was particularly influenced by the works of Émile Zola. His writings influenced James Joyce, according to the literary critic and biographer Richard Ellmann, and, although Moore's work is sometimes seen as outside the mainstream of both Irish and British literature, he is as often regarded as the first great modern Irish novelist.

George Moore was an Irish novelist, playwright, and critic recognized for his influential contributions to modernist literature. His early works, including "A Modern Lover" and "Esther Waters," delve into themes of sexuality, social class, and the intricacies of human relationships. Over time, Moore's writing style evolved to incorporate impressionistic techniques, placing a strong emphasis on the inner lives of his characters. As a key figure in the Irish literary revival, Moore formed close relationships with contemporaries such as W.B. Yeats and James Joyce. His commitment to realism and candid exploration of controversial subjects not only challenged societal norms but also set the stage for future writers. By tackling topics often considered taboo, Moore significantly impacted both Irish and English literature, making his work an essential part of the modern literary landscape. His legacy endures through the themes he championed and the narrative techniques he pioneered, influencing generations of writers that followed.
