Fortune's Hand

About the Book

Fortune's Hand is a collection of riveting new short stories by fiction writer G. Rice Washburn. Included is one of her delightful factual pieces. The stories surprise by unfolding in scattered regions and diverse cultures- on a southwestern pueblo; in Asia; rural Maine; New York; an Alaskan village; the circus- and are often touched with whimsy or mystery.

The tales Washburn weaves speak of the joys and trials in life, and a love of the natural world. Washburn's descriptions are rich and uniquely accessible to the senses. The book is a beautifully written feast that readers will have difficulty putting down.
