The Reader was co-sponsored and co-conceived by CavanKerry and
LaurelBooks partner, The Arnold P.Gold Foundation for Humanism in
Medicine. Publisher Joan Cusack Handler and Gold Foundation
President and CEO Sandra Gold observed that patients, while waiting
to learn about their physical health, typically are provided only
pop culture magazines--perhaps entertaining but without the solace
and comfort that literature provides. The Waiting Room Reader was
designed to address that need by bringing fine and accessible
writing to "keep the patients company." Here are uplifting and
inspiring poems that focus on life's gifts - everyday pleasures:
love and family, food and home, work and play, dreams and the
earth. This collection, originally offered only to hospitals and
physicians' waiting rooms, was received with great success and is
now available to a wider audience.
