"Thoughts enter like a piano concerto, lively and in full sustained legato, only to return in diminuendo, a single wavering note in the room. I'm not much more than a wordless simple tone, wishing desperately for the return of the bright harmony of language."~Auburn McCanta
This was another difficult book to read. Next month I am going to find something a little less upsetting to read.
The author does a good job telling the story from the point of view of the person who is losing their memory from Alzheimer's as well as capturing the confusion, fear and anguish of the adult children.
Worth reading, but be prepared to feel uncomfortable.
