Await the Cat Sculptor

JP Hart has been writing all of his life, but has only recently agreed to offer his compelling short stories to the public. Await the Cat Sculptor is a short story collection inspired by the author's personal experiences.
He has a gift for observing the common aspects of the American life and finding the poetry in what he sees and has experienced.
Each of his stories takes a slice of Americana and adds his unique descriptions to bring out the literary beauty of even the simple things in life.
