Synopsis

A sports legend resides in a nursing home who encounters and unexpected life journey. West's AMOS is an imposing landscape of human drama and emotion 'hear-rendering, timeless, hilarious, stunning, joyful, - an incredible story, a book that rips readers early and late, a novel they don't want to end… a page turner with heart, a joy to read, a treasure to cherish. Ever so often, indifference and neglect mutate into unmitigated evil and then humanity goes on trial.  Rarely, someone stands in the breach and shouts ""No"" with only courage and dignity as weapons.  Amos was a man who thought he's experienced all that life had to offer, when with a capricious turn of fate, he fell through the cracks of society's institutions, in to the merciless cogwheels of human apathy and carelessness.  His struggle not only to survive, but, to overcome is a compelling testimony to the inner strength and irrepressible spirit of man.  Against devastating odds and arrogant brutality, Amos finds a triumph he never expected.
