Wicked Little Letters - 2023 - 6/10
As is often the case, they started out as friends.
Enjoying each others company, sharing laughs.
Before the misunderstandings, the spats, then the letters.
Filthy obscenities, heinous libels, shocking to decent citizens.
And decent citizens across the village began receiving the posted filth.
Marked as a comedy, this is an ugly, mean-spirited thing.
Jane Marple would recognize the setting and the characters.
The petty harshness of the cozy confines.
