MEMOIRS OF A SUPERHERO IN WAITING is thememoirs of Savannah Deville, a young woman whose coming of age story conveysthe balance between choice and impulse, and the impossibility of findingclarity in either. Her perpetual,erratic motion makes her seem as if she could shoot off in any directionwithout warning.

Sheissquarely placed in the midst of human suffering and comes of agethrough therights of passage of heartache, indulgence and sometimesself-deprivation, all the while seeking her superhero strength toovercome all. Her very excitingjourney takes her from love to lover to loathing to peace as shetravels to the other side of the world (Taiwan at first) attempting to save herself. Her adventures and misadventures, strungtogether like a necklace displayed, are all connected with the thread of her heartstringworn like a badge of honor. She fleas tofind inner peace. She questions themeaning of life and she travels, encountering strange hippies and urbansurvivalists along the way. She neverdespairs and so she clings to the hope that some day all may be saved andrestored. Hence her steadfast beliefthat she is a superhero in waiting and that she will tap into her powers at anymoment.

Savannah is strong andintelligent, creative and lusty. Thestory of her life is adept at exploding expectations of a young woman who is ateacher and a reforming “good girl”. She is a woman who is somewhat on the fringe of society in herexperimental manner. She has left her daughter but not before as her journal is handed down to her to explore.
