This is one of my favorite books of all time. I gave a copy of it to a psychiatrist friend of mine who deals in geriatric psychiatry. The psychology of the retirement home is interesting since many of us will live in one someday. One of the most humorous scenes I remember in the book is how the breakdown of the soft serve ice cream machine was a major tragedy for the residents. I could relate to that. LOL
