Mr. Fitch and Me and Other Stories

With Mr. Fitch and Me and Other Stories, Weldon Turner gives us six stories of extraordinary depth and remarkable insight into the human spirit. In the title story a successful young lawyer, faced with the probability of a career-ending indictment and a mounting personal crisis, finds comfort in a church congregation, but also finds himself subtly challenged by one of its older members. In other stories two women struggle with the isolation brought on by the perfect appearances they feel compelled to present to society; a university student is forced to come to grips with his ideas of what feminine beauty really means; and a young man keeps a vigil at his sister’s bedside and desperately tries to articulate his true feelings for her.
