Latest Review: Our Autumn Years by Arthur Hartz

The premise of this book is both amazing and emotional. It's sadly funny that a bit of bad luck or being at the wrong place could be the reason for one's homelessness.
And I agree with you that "the homeless deserve the best book one can write. " I hope that the author heeds your suggestions, a backstory is necessary.
I enjoyed reading your review, you wrote one amazing review.
Live and let live, baby.

Thank you for your kind words! It was really surprising to learn what kind of backgrounds the homeless have. Made me actually feel thankful that I have a roof over my head.

That's a touching review! Unfortunately, with more and more people unable to afford rent, the homeless will grow in number. I can only hope our world leaders will address this problem, and quickly.

You got that one right. This is an increasing problem that does require actions from our leaders. Thank you for commenting! :tiphat:

However good a book is, editorial aspects may hamper its reception to the audience. It is sad that this book had to fall victim for such. Thanks for the honest review.

I am suspecting this book might have never seen a skilled editor, and it definitely needs one. The idea and the content are great nevertheless! Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

To be honest here, most of us were raised with the assumption that the homeless are so because of their past life mistakes or sort. I'm really delighted that someone has looked beyond this and cared to enquire from those at the frontlines.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

You got that one right. And of course it is true in some of the cases but there’s so much more to this. Therefore this book is more than necessary. Thanks for commenting!
