The story of a highly intelligent lecturer in linguistics who rapidly descends into confusion as a result of Early Onset Alzheimers disease is beautifully written and constructed. I was deeply moved by the portrayal of Alice and her family as they learn to cope with their new situation. The tale is harrowing, but full of love too. I cried buckets.
