Staff Pick
This novel is an in-depth, accurately depicted account of the way Alzheimer's disease robs its victims of their very selves. Moving, heartbreaking, and written so well it seemed like nonfiction, this novel is absolutely beautiful. A trained neuroscientist with a PhD from Harvard, first-time author Lisa Genova knows her stuff and it shows. Poignant, stunning, and haunting. Recommended By Dianah H., Powells.com
