Summary

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, Ragnarök, and it answers the age-old question: if man made the chicken, did the chicken also make man?
