Still Alice
Our book of the month is Still Alice by Lisa Genova as recommended by Susan Crammond in Toronto, ON.
Yummy Mummy Susan says...
“Bluntly, its about a woman who is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimers. Its poignant, and heartbreaking, and a thoroughly compelling read. One caveat, though: after you read it, you may find yourself second-guessing yourself, and wondering if maybe you, too, are exhibiting symptoms. Read it anyway! "
Still Alice: While Alice once placed her worth and identity in her celebrated and respected academic life, now she must re-evaluate her relationship with her husband, her expectations of her children and her ideas about herself and her place in the world.
