"Not since Charles Bukowski have I found myself so submerged into the life and times of so many colorful characters. Acclaimed writer Chris Andoe brings a modern flair to such a missing style of literature today. I felt intrigued, enlightened, dirty, amused, outraged, betrayed and in awe of all that is Delusions Of Grandeur." - Karla Templeton, Vital Voice Oklahoma native Chris Andoe has lived from San Francisco to New York, but for nearly twenty years has remained captivated by the drama, culture, and tragedy of the haunted old river city of St. Louis, a place he's likened to Sunset Boulevard's Norma Desmond, simultaneously celebrating yet mourning a glorious past. Delusions of Grandeur is a compilation of tales and snippets of many lives and characters whose stories entertain standing alone and enrapture woven together. From a deranged conman penetrating the highest reaches of state politics to shocking headlines of a 'human slaughter chamber' on the East St. Louis riverfront, Andoe has collected and craftily chronicled the whole spectrum of the St. Louis LGBT community and beyond, and the outcome is nothing short of page turning. Often mired in controversy for his unflinching style, "Emperor of St. Louis" Chris Andoe is a columnist for Vital Voice.

Delusions of Grandeur, (Emptiness never felt so good!); is your own emotional roller coaster ride, in vivid color, through the mind and heart of "the boy", a victim of life who is condemned early on by the most unlikely of people, at least so you think.The narrative of an all too true story, starts out incredibly dull and slow, as does our real lives, but opens up within only a handful of pages to an array of confusion and chaos, that leave both "the boy" and the reader questioning the intentions of all those, who consider themselves close to him or you. You will cringe as "the boy" yearns for any feeling, even wanting little more than to hurt, but for a day, just to feel alive again.

In Delusions of Grandeur Joey Franklin examines the dreams and delusions of America's most persistent mythologies--including the beliefs in white supremacy and rugged individualism and the problems of toxic masculinity and religious extremism--as they reveal themselves in the life of a husband and father fast approaching forty. With prose steeped in research and a playful, lyric attention to language, Franklin asks candid questions about what it takes to see clearly as a citizen, a parent, a child, a neighbor, and a human being. How should a white father from the suburbs talk with his sons about the death of Trayvon Martin? What do video games like Fortnite and Minecraft reveal about our appetites for destruction? Is it possible for Americans to celebrate bootstrap pioneer history while also lamenting the slavery that made it possible? How does the American tradition of exploiting cheap labor create a link between coal mining and plasma donation in southeast Ohio? Part cultural critique, part parental confessional, Delusions of Grandeur embraces the notion that the personal is always political, and reveals important, if sometimes uncomfortable, truths about our American obsessions with race, class, religion, and family.

Charles Kimber was an interesting character - an Eton and Balliol educated baronet, socialist, historian, market gardener, pig farmer, publican, and rally driver - with friends of all ages from all over the world who appreciated the scope of his knowledge, his kindness and his sense of humour. Some of this comes across in this intelligently written and insightful book. "When my father died, the day after this book was finished, we found a file on his laptop entitled 'Short cut to Funeral'. He asked to be dumped in a hole in the ground as cheaply as possible in the field behind his house, with a West Indian style wake where his friends would gather for good food and much drink to assess the character of the deceased fairly; good and bad, sinner and saint. I didn't carry out his wishes, mainly because I couldn't see myself asking the matron at Pershore hospital to load his corpse into the front seat of my car, or barrowing the cardboard biodegradable coffin he had stored in the roof of the cowshed across the field. So his ashes went there instead. The wake was a big party in a marquee." Kate Collingwood, daughter

"Reads almost like a poem . . . An earnest, soulful book about the world's woes." - Kirkus Reviews A book that asks the big questions facing today's generation DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR is part dark and humorous memoir, part relentless cultural critique. How can a people who have so much still feel dissatisfied? How does an educated but jaded society reconcile what they know with what they see happening around them? These and other big questions are examined and updated for today. If you have ever felt that more should be happening - in your life, in this culture we give ourselves to - then this book is for you. Thousands protesting in the streets of New York. Revolutions across the Middle East. Millions of people plugged into social networks, searching for a connection, longing for a sense of community. This is not the trailer for a movie, not the hook of an epic novel; this is what's happening today, all around us. Using a familiar backstory and well-known cultural examples, revisiting our history to better see where we came from, DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR is a passionate and personal examination of that "something" that is missing in our lives, why this something continues to eat at us, and why we need a different approach to how we deal with it. In a modern and fast-paced style, a compelling and common sense argument is presented for the next stage in our cultural evolution. A must-read for anyone who's ever felt sure that there must be more than this.
