Description
Forty short stories turn attention to the people who might otherwise remain at the edge of the scene. In Bit Parts, Wilton Morley begins with “The Airport Waitress,” an imagined encounter at Mason City airport before Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper board their final flight.
Caitlin, the waitress, has more immediate concerns than musical history: the cold outside, the lateness of the hour, a cat waiting at home and the hope of getting some sleep. The familiar names are seen through her working night, over coffee, burgers and conversation. That shift of attention gives the collection its title and its invitation: to step away from the spotlight and spend time with the people standing just beyond it.
