Final Touch Review
Heads up! It seems that preventable accidental death is cost effective where America shops. The sounds of forklifts and the sight of merchandise stacked hight are all ploys to give the shopper the illusion that they are getting a great deal. What the shopper doesn't realize and what Dolly Cain discovered is that the ambiance of a bargain warehouse is the prime objective--not the safety of the customer. An occasional incident is acceptable to the bottom line. Judith Cain Dotson, the Cain family cantadora, has put a face on one such 1985 incident. In Final Touch we have the pleasure of meeting Dolly Bryant Cain. Mrs. Cain was one of the outstanding memebers of what Tom Brokaw has labeled the Greatest Generation. Dolly was a loving wife, mother, artist, and poet. At the time of her death she had successfully battled cancer. In one of Mrs. Cain's poems she asks, "What would you think if in the morning/When you looked upon the clock--/If the time was moving backwards,/If yesterday were tomorrow, t'would be awkward." Turning yesterday into today is what Judith Dotson does as she takes us through her mother's life. In Final Touch we meet a joyous woman that supported her family while reciting poetry, a farm woman that was known to gift-wrap chicken feet, a woman that kenw how to find joy in the moment.
If Dolly Cain could turn back the hands of time, she would join her daughter and the readers of this book in demanding that the super discount stores take the forklifts out of their stores during business hours. According to Dotson, there have been, "Over 30,000 falling merchandise accidents from 1989-1997 in the Wal-Mart system." Final Touch is a must read for any American that shops in warehouse type stores.
