Vicariously Free  tells the story of a young girl growing up and meeting God. The young girl has an authentic voice and feels that what she says is so important that her name is not necessary; no names other than God as it is the only one that appears throughout the text. She travels through many seasons of life while aging mentally faster than she experiences a calendar birthday. She learns about rape, deals with death and tries to vicariously escape many situations in her life that she would rather not experience. She feels as though her life has been a nightmare since she was too young to understand life. 

She has conversations with God and along the way she is uncertain if she will ever understand their relationship. Being taught that He is most high, she associates all of the problems in her life with Him as well. She begs Him to help her, help others and even abandon her. She wants to be saved and if God is the entity that could save her, who is supposed to save her from Him?
