Broken Fiction is a collection of short autofictional stories and poems that both offer solace and depict anguish at the collision of memory, loss, and grief. This kind of story-making negotiates a recognition and acceptance of hard truths without resorting to easy resolution. The pieces in this volume are playful and fierce. The narrator's willingness to give attention to where love works or goes wrong, or to the moments when suffering cannot be veiled by a positive attitude--even as the comic or absurd overwhelms the tragic and humiliating--takes us to places that inhabit both memory and fiction. Photographs break the fiction and pull the reader into the inevitable forces of time and loss and death. Broken Fiction invites readers to consider a way through--and sometimes around--illness and love, pain and joy, and gives a droplet of hope in nature's comedy of errors and coincidence.
