INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Boyce, Frank Cottrell

The Unforgotten Coat

(3) 4-6 Photographs by Carl Hunter & Clare Heney. Brothers Chingis and Nergui suddenly appear in Julie's classroom. They appoint her their "Good Guide" and learn to blend in, all the while spinning tales of Mongolia and a demon that's trying to make Nergui disappear. Told from Julie's perceptive, compassionate perspective and accompanied by numerous photographs, the U.K.-set story is poetic, bittersweet, and a little bit mystical.
