The Smallest of Entryways - Softcover

The Smallest of Entryways (2012) is a collection of nine short stories by Cristen Hemingway Jaynes, the great-granddaughter of Nobel Prize winner, Ernest Hemingway. The stories in The Smallest of Entryways paint a picture of a child, at first helplessly affected and then, as she grows into an adult, shaped by the alcohol dependence of her mother. The stories were written over a twelve-year span; this is her first collection. It is published by chum literary press, the author's own imprint, in association with Humanitas Media Publishing, which also will publish chum literary magazine starting in 2013.
