PLAINVIEW, Texas, Nov. 30, 2006 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Sometime in the distant or near future, one would have to accept the inevitable and consider living in a nursing home. But it is not really scary as one may think. Experience the humor amidst the seriousness through a certain Mrs. Spockrocket in author Will-Allen Jameson's book Unraveling At Glory House.
Unraveling At Glory House is a poignant story told by Mrs. Shaker Spockrocket, that moves with a swift comic flow. There is never a dull moment as she offers eclectic and acid remarks of what's happening in the senior years of her life at Glory House Living Center. Seniors and their loved ones find comfort here, where the seniors are cared for by skilled staff and assistants, and laughter becomes second nature to them.
This book's solemnity is evenly tempered with wit, its unusual format setting it apart from other books. The author treats her characters with love and care. She shares with the readers some of the characters' lighter and grayer moments. No one will be left untouched by this galvanizing story. It's a fast read and never proves to be boring, but is strictly for the mature. The reader will find comfort in understanding the seniors' problems through humor, and will gladly share this book with friends, neighbors, and the elderly.
