“Hope” by Robert K. Swisher Jr. is as moving a story as it is inspiring. It is the story of a group of residents in a nursing home who start feeling redundant and worthless.Swisher understands to paint them as great individuals that you care for, not just as objects to be handled and managed by the staff.The subjects of nursing homes in times of financial restraint and cost cuttings is controversial and the book throws up a lot of interesting points, but this is mainly the story of its residents, their resilience and their hope.Heart breaking and heart-warming this is a wonderful read.
