The narrator of Washed and Dried speaks from a foggy road, a lighthouse, the flowerbed in front of her ghostly home, a midstream rock, the desert, a childhood steeped in the south. The result is a series of recollections on family, change, and loss. Readers will recognize the hero and main character, who emerges in real, imaged, and perilous states: hurricane, pools, rising seas, creeks and rivers, canals, mist, mud puddles, flakes of snow.
