The Viviane Diary book trailer

The Viviane Diary, http://fatoumatamanjang.com, is an intricate literary web of romance, tragic loss, Hip Hop, superstition, peer pressure and greed. Its author, Fatoumata Manjang, a well traveled 17-year-old girl, took to fiction writing at age 14.

In The Viviane Diary, Detroit-born Mike and Viviane move from their envied college romance in Iowa to a turbulent marital relationship in Miami that eventually claims Viviane's life on the third birthday of their daughter Lori and a day after sharing her ordeal with a mysterious old lady at a waterfall. Mike, a Florida political heavyweight, elects not to remarry but at age 16, Lori suddenly marries a 19-year-old "stranger" during a summer trip to Atlanta with school friends, breaking Mike's heart. Few days after the bare bones wedding, her husband Maric whose father had been poisoned by his gold-digger second wife and was fighting for his dear life in hospital, dumps Lori. Then she finds vital answers in the eye-popping contents of her late mother's diary.
