The Jew of Home Depot and Other Stories

“Delightful, utterly cynicism-free stories collected here... celebrate serendipity... If a lot of contemporary short fiction falls into the category dubbed ‘Kmart realism,’ Apple needs his own category. Call it Kmart magical realism.”—Lisa Zeidner, Washington Post Book World

“This new book of short stories once again demonstrates Apple’s ability to write spare prose with a minimum of adjectives and adverbs that, nevertheless, mixes humor and satire with a wry comment on the human condition... testifying to the quiet power of Apple’s writing.”—Morton Teicher, Jewish Journal
