Of Bliss and Granted Wishes: A True Story Told as a Novel

Rate this book
Of Bliss and Granted Wishes is a true story. To avoid retiring to a nursing home, Sam and Sophie Foster remodel their house and ask a family (mother, father, three children, and a dog!) to move in with them. Filled with humor, rich with compassion, undying love, and a determined refusal to give in to decrepitude and Sam’s loss of memory, their story is proof that, in the words of Ireland’s great poet, Thomas Moore, “the heart that has truly loved never forgets.”

OMG--what a fabulous story!

This story is a real winner. What a lovely description of a couple and how their beautiful life for almost 60 years. It's so well written with grace and dignity. Don't miss it.
