Product description...

“There should be a warning label on memoirs, and it should be all in caps with an exclamation mark after the word ‘MEMOIR!’ Like ‘MARS ATTACK!’”

So says Bob in a piece of fiction the author intertwines in a triad: her non-fiction “Letters of Apology for My First Memoir,” written to the men who starred in her first memoir; “Finding Family We Never Knew We Had,” her vivid account of Christmas 2021 with a once-estranged sister as they consider apologies and explore their own relationship while reviewing a search they conducted forty years earlier for their “third” grandmother; and the fictional “MEMOIR!”

Author Information...

Tina Martin, author of Everything I Should Have Learned I Could Have Learned in Tonga and Letters from Algeria and the Day Everything Changed, taught at City College of San Francisco for thirty-two years after teaching and training teachers on five continents—Oceania, Europe, Africa, North America, and Asia. Although her most eventful decade was the 1970s, when she lived in Tonga, Spain, and Algeria, got her MA in TESOL, got married and had a baby, she did some major sleuthing in the early 1980s with her sister Dana when on a quest for their mother’s “origin story.” Her favorite pastimes are walking all over San Francisco, making photo montages of what she sees, celebrating friends and family, Zooming, following Friends of Tonga, writing letters (personal and political), apologizing for past, present, and future transgressions, and reading and discussing books including the 130+ she and her son Jonathan have read for the JoMa Book Club they founded in 2007.
