Daddy-An Absolutely Authentic Fake Memoir (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

What do you get when a preeminent newspaper recruits an opportunistic rug entrepreneur, who will remind you of Donald Trump, as its moral pundit? You get a charmingly crass satiric tell-all inspired by The Ethicist column and real scandals about false memoirs. Narrated by an adult daughter who possesses a loose tongue and nose for BS, it looks consumerism, commercialism and other contemporary norms straight in the hypocritical eye.

Readers, who know Isabel Allende, Joan Didion, and Jamaica Kincaid through their memoirs, will come across them and others in these pages that are intermixed with reality and fantasy. For those who see the irony in current trends and influences, this book will be particularly appealing.

A funny, sharp and clever look at the contradictory nature in ourselves and society, Daddy provides a good laugh at our underbelly.

Autorenporträt

A lifelong New Yorker whose varied work history, which some people might call "being all over the place," eventually led Andrea to become an adoption social worker and, for a number of years, writer and editor of a monthly group newsletter.

Daddy-An Absolutely Authentic Fake Memoir, her debut novel, which was prescient because Trump-the-celebrity was not yet a presidential candidate, is about a character who is ridiculously good for a laugh, minus the aggravation!

She currently is working on a novel about life's randomness and social influence, with a serious yet wry eye, and hopes people can relate to its characters and come away understanding and, perhaps, identifying with their state of mind.
