Abstract/Description
The Long Teeth of Memory is a collection of contemporary short stories, personal essays, and poetry. All the work incorporates elements of the author’s life. Where the stories are wholly autobiographical, the character Jeff Holden (an avatar for the author) appears, alongside his ex-wife (Carla), children (Megan, Samantha, and George), and former brother-in-law (Mark). Fictional stories are presented as bylined by Jeff Holden.
