"God’s Waiting Room: Racial Reckoning at Life’s End is a poignant and immersive exploration of life in a South African nursing home, built atop a graveyard left behind by the forced removals of apartheid. Rich in mystery and life’s lessons, it considers what matters in the end for older white adults and the younger Black nurses who care for them. Casey Golomski’s years of immersive research are narrated as a one-day, room-by-room tour in which the stories of seven individuals highlight the tensions between care and prejudice, survival and memory, as they reckon with the apartheid era’s haunting legacy. Told in breathtakingly intimate and witty conversations with the home’s residents and nurses, including the untold story of Nelson Mandela’s Robben Island prison nurse, readers learn how ageism, sexism, and racism intersect and impact health care as well as create conditions in which people primed to be enemies find grace despite the odds.
