THE LITTLE WASHER OF SORROWS, Short Stories by Katherine Fawcett, is a collection of short stories that explores what happens when the expected and usual are replaced with elements of the rare and strange.
The book’s emotional impact is created with strong, richly drawn characters facing universal issues in unusual settings. The collection is both dark and comical with engaging plot twists and elements of the macabre as characters attempt to cope with high-stakes melodramas that drift further out of their control. The threat of something sinister lingers beneath the surface in many of Fawcett’s stories, as she explores the messy “what ifs?” of life and the ever-present paradox of free will.
