Chicago-based writer Viqi French is author of the memoir Daddy's Gonna Buy That Baby A Jaguar.
The book's subtitle, "A suspenseful life with an upROARious bite," well describes this collection of witty short stories. This writing is vibrant and charming, yet dark and sometimes naughty.
French writes in a thrilling new niche, one she's termed 'suspense memoirs'. The chapters covering her hilarious childhood in St. Louis are highlighted by ghost encounters, a mysterious cross-dressing classmate, and a dangerous tryst playing with fire.
Later, French attends college in Philadelphia, where her adventurous, arty spirit takes full flight. Narrative essays in these pages tell of a brush with the fringe political group MOVE, partying until dawn at the legendary club Catacombs, and a zany competition with a "bad seed" tot over French's 'Fro-hawk wearing guy.
Viqi French's stories fill a funky, new sandbox with a refreshing blend of edginess and style. If you enjoy book by Augusten Burroughs and David Sedaris, do not miss memoirist Viqi French's suspenseful roar!
