About this ebook
From acclaimed author, Noah Milligan, comes a short story collection, Five Hundred Poor. The title comes from Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations, “Wherever there is great property there is great inequality. For one very rich man there must be at least five hundred poor, and the affluence of the few supposes the indigence of the many. The affluence of the rich excites the indignation of the poor, who are often both driven by want, and prompted by envy, to invade his possessions.”
These are ten stories of those five hundred poor, the jaded, the disillusioned, and the disenfranchised.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5What I enjoyed most about this collection of short stories is the book as a whole had this cohesive quality even though the stories were vastly different. That isn't always the case in a book of short stories. When I saw the title I assumed this was just going to be about having no money but the stories all were centered around the theme of lacking something whether it be direction, love, hope, control, etc.While at times a few of the stories could be hard to read when they took shocking and graphic turns, each one was original and you were left feeling like you really got into the minds of the characters. My personal favorite of the bunch was "Brought to you by Anonymous" which I didn't care for at first but really ended up feeling invested in the relationship between father and daughter.Overall, a good collection of stories that really show off the author's ability to create stories that are not only original but leave each reader taking away something different.Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read an advance digital copy! I was under no obligation to post a review on Amazon and all views expressed are my honest opinion.
