Synopsis
There is an alien world hidden behind the closed doors of a typical nursing home, replete with rich characters, absurd humor and unspeakable real-life horrors.
Within these pages your eyes will open to a compassionate yet unflinching truth that quietly repeats itself in countless forms across America.
Follow the life-education of a nurse's aide who cares deeply. He feels the squeeze of the profit motive, plows through obtuse regulations, and finds transcendent joy within dementia and beyond acute loneliness.
