Produktinformationen zu „Fridays with my Folks / Puffin Classics (ePub)“
Amal Awad investigates ageing in Australia from her perspective as an adult daughter grappling with a parent's decline. She also includes expertise from health care professionals and lawmakers, and she interviews others in similar positions-retirees, those in aged-care facilities and people being cared for by family-documenting their struggles with genuine heart. What becomes clear in Awad's research is society's clear discomfort with ageing, and how it is framed as a failure in our youth-obsessed society. An admirable strength of Fridays With My Folks is the strong personal thread, which connects readers to Awad's father, a Palestinian migrant and ambitious adventurer.
