Reviews

"""There is nothing frail or distant in God’s Waiting Room. We are pressed up against stories—some hard, some wanting—and invited in. Casey Golomski masterfully collapses the priorities and politics of past-ness, now-ness, and future-ness into the workings of the everyday, never discriminating between big and little signifiers, told through a closeness and lyrical attention to form."" -- Todd Meyers * author of All That Was Not Her * ""A delightful surprise of a book! A tale of big-hearted patients and staff, racism, and eldercare in post-apartheid South Africa. Placed within the context of the country's history of white supremacy, these subtle and moving stories of patients in the present day being sustained by Grace offer a striking portrait of our shared humanity despite racial and other differences."" -- Theresa Brown * author of Healing: When a Nurse Becomes a Patient *"
