Tangles: A Story about Alzheimers, My Mother, and Me - Sarah Leavitt

Detalii:

nIn this powerful memoir the the LA Times calls moving, rigorous, and heartbreaking, Sarah Leavitt reveals how Alzheimers disease transformed her mother, Midge, and her family forever. In spare blackand- white drawings and clear, candid prose, Sarah shares her familys journey through a harrowing range of emotions--shock, denial, hope, anger, frustration--all the while learning to cope, and managing to find moments of happiness. Midge, a Harvard educated intellectual, struggles to comprehend the simplest words; Sarahs father, Rob, slowly adapts to his new role as full-time caretaker, but still finds time for wordplay and poetry with his wife; Sarah and her sister Hannah argue, laugh, and grieve together as they join forces to help Midge. Tangles confronts the complexity of Alzheimers disease, and ultimately releases a knot of memories and dreams to reveal a bond between a mother and a daughter that will never come apart.
