This is a great story about an aging feminist author with Parkinson's Disease at the time she moves into her estranged son's home. The book explores the complex relationships of the aging parent, the middle aged children, and their college aged children. It is a must read for anyone in the "sandwich generation" faced with caring for aging parents and not quite grown children at the same time.
