A sports legend resides in a nursing home who encounters and unexpected life journey.
Wests AMOS is an imposing landscape of human drama and emotion hear-rendering, timeless, hilarious, stunning, joyful, - an incredible story, a book that rips readers early and late, a novel they dont want to end a page turner with heart, a joy to read, a treasure to cherish.
Ever so often, indifference and neglect mutate into unmitigated evil and then humanity goes on trial. Rarely, someone stands in the breach and shouts No with only courage and dignity as weapons. Amos was a man who thought hes experienced all that life had to offer, when with a capricious turn of fate, he fell through the cracks of societys institutions, in to the merciless cogwheels of human apathy and carelessness. His struggle not only to survive, but, to overcome is a compelling testimony to the inner strength and irrepressible spirit of man. Against devastating odds and arrogant brutality, Amos finds a triumph he never expected.
