It doesn't take a brain surgeon to tell you that life at times can seem tedious, ordinary, or even predictable, but it does take an exceptional storyteller to guide you past ordinary details to the sublime adventure and relish of life's most mundane events. Author and retired neurosurgeon William Herman Bloom achieves this with ease along with a passionate view of life that is reflected in "Wit, Wisdom, & Whimsy." From memorializing a former canine companion to recalling machismo days in a Mexican bullring, Bloom's command of language and his perception of the human experience combine for sheer reading pleasure. Wisps of philosophical thought weave throughout the musing, sometimes fanciful anecdotes sprinkled with tastes of good-natured poetry.
