The French Stranger

Set in Depression-era Savannah, Georgia, THE FRENCH STRANGER tells the story of Fred Dumas--a woman's pleasure specialist--who unknowingly kills Bunny Meyers, and is being hunted by two hit men set on him by her husband, a wealthy man who is running for mayor. This culminates into a cascade of dizzying absurdities that touch on a wide range of topics including: quantum and time theory, reincarnation, parallel universes, nirvana, baseball, World War I, chicken boxing, voodoo, Chick-O-Sticks, and Ragnarök. It's a richly layered meditation on change, time, purpose, identity, comedy, and the very nature of existence itself-plus, it answers the age-old question: if man made the chicken, did the chicken also make man?
