Grandmother Olivia at Casa Verdiana

THE book "GRANDMOTHER OLIVIA A CASA VERDIANA" opens to the reader a world very close to American, Italian and civilized families throughout the world, i.e. the one relating to Rest Homes for the so-called SELF-SUFFICIENT people of the third age, but who often use a walker cart. There are aspects of daily life, friendships and relationships between them, with the Sisters who manage Casa Verdiana, as well as with doctors, civil workers and family members, the latter fundamental for their physical and mental health with their affection and their visits, which have an effect comparable to that obtained with medical therapies and with good material, physical and spiritual assistance. It reflects the American, Italian and other nations of the world society, because the people hosted are mostly women, who live longer than men. Foreigners such as NONNA OLIVIA are also starting to be present, a sign that Italian society is increasingly international and multiracial.
