She Comes from Money

An older man bemoans his virial youth, a teacher is falsely accused of harassment, and a patient is sent to six specialists to cure a common cold. A careless remark tests a lifelong friendship, Columbus sails to America hoping to fall off the edge, and a mountain man becomes a cantor during High Holidays. These are but a few of the 41 short stories that comprise Daniel Wolf's third book, She Comes from Money. Like his first book, But Is He Jewish? and Other Quirky Tales, Mr. Wolf explores a number of genres such as Comedy (Blood Pressure, I Have a Cold), Coming of Age (The Breach, Larry Weiss), Fantasy (The Wheel of Samsara, Make the World Your Brother), and Realistic Fiction ( Hold My Beer, I Never Looked). Overall, She Comes from Money provides a delightful reading experience as it touches upon a variety of themes in an entertaining and always human manner.
