Stories at the Kitchen Table
by Katherine Brady


In this captivating and often humorous collection of short stories, Katherine Brady recounts the true stories of her late father Terry, bringing them to the page from the table around which the family used to gather. The tales come from Terry’s days as a Marine probie cleaning the latrine with a toothbrush, youth spent getting into trouble in small-town Massachusetts, his days fishing with family and friends, and more, offering a portrait of the man and many life lessons (even if the lesson is often what not to do). Brady honors her father in the honest and human portrayal of him and ensures his memory—and his stories—are carried to the next generation.

Katherine Brady (she/her) was inspired to write as a child by her vivid imagination and days at the library. On Saturdays, she would walk to the library and read as much as she could until it closed. At eight, she wrote poems for her mother and was later noted for her writing by her English teacher in high school and her literature professor when she attended college at age fifty. The stories of her late father were, of course, another inspiration. In addition to writing, Katherine loves history and literature, hikes with family, fishing trips, and the ocean—the beach is like a second home to her. Katherine lives in Belchertown, Massachusetts with her husband Thomas and two kitties.
