Sort of Rich


Good day~



Title           : Sort of Rich
Author      : James Wilcox

Synopsis  :

Gretchen Peabody, fortyish and only just a bit frowsy, has decided to abandon the comforts of Manhattan for a new home in Tula Springs, Lousiana, having been swept off her feet by Frank Dambar, a fetching widower she has happened upon in New Orleans souvenir shop.  What she finds there, however, is a state of affairs to which only James Wilcox could do justice. 



While Gretchen is baffled by the small town’s provincialism, it pales next to the weird household her new husband has assembled, which includes a handyman/mystic and his arthritic niece, and a stolidly Teutonic housekeeper determined to keep the first Mrs Dambar’s memory alive.  Just as Gretchen begins to wonder whether so unusual a marriage has been a mistake, fate again intrudes… and Sort of Rich takes off in a startling direction.
