About the book

At a city hospital the doctors have noticed a marked uptake in Alzheimer's patients. Is it just normal ageing or an epidemic? Is it a coincidence or is Alzheimer's spreading like the common cold? The renowned New Yorker writer and Pulitzer Prize finalist Lore Segal creates a poignant and profoundly moving portrait of life today - where terrorist paranoia and end-of-the-world hysteria mask deeper fears of mortality, and in which we find tenderness as well as sadness in family life and its complications.
