A Little Something for Everyone: stories, monologues, dialogues and observations - 2538

This unique collection is a blend of stories—some weighty, some light—along with monologues and dialogues drawn from the author’s stint as a solo performer and writer of satirical sketch comedy. An ice tray that elicits fury, a family feud over adult diapers, a witch's curse on sociopathic politicians, a sentimental send-off at a crematorium—these are just a few of the appetizers at the buffet called A Little Something for Everyone.“Stories and dialogues, realism and fabulism all sit together in this fiction collection. … Kasten’s prose is measured and understated, building inevitably to some colorful moment of outburst. With the exception of one long (and good) story, the pieces are generally short, and their variety is a feature, not a bug. … [The] author always manages to find the human fault lines in her narratives, revealing them to readers before hurrying on to the next episode. A multifaceted and highly enjoyable assemblage of tales in different forms.”—Kirkus Reviews
