About this title

Synopsis

The author of The Brothers K presents several short stories, including one about a self-appointed visionary who guards a river, alternating with real-life reminiscences of his experiences around the rivers of the Northwest.

Review

"Exquisite." --Buzz

"Poignant, funny, and artful, Duncan's Oriver teeth' are like elongated American haiku, stretching their grainy syllables from the home plate of nostalgia to the outfield fences of eternity." --Tom Robbins

"To read River Teeth is to have a stranger's recollections loom up out of vagary and namelessness, and to grip you as if they were your own." --Los Angeles Times

"David James Duncan is in love with water, the rivers and streams that coursed through his life. Believe me, you will be swept up by his rivers, carried downstream, and deposited in a new place. In that new place, Duncan will build a fire and tell you a bunch of stories. What else could you want?" --Sherman Alexie
