Finding Life in the Land of Alzheimer’s – Reviews

“A miracle of caring… Lauren Kessler manages to humanize the victims and shine a clear, compassionate light on those who struggle to care for them. Anyone affected by the disease has to read this book.”
-Barbara Ehrenreich

“Heartening and thought-provoking…Kessler’s feelings as a daughter and her experiences as a caregiver add up to a touching read, and the book offers some unusual ways to think about living and dying with the disease.”
-The Seattle Times

“I have worked in the field of dementia care for twenty years and have also been touched personally by its challenges. Your book has reached a new height in the understanding of the caregiver’s world and the mission for their work.”
-Bernie Cavis, a reader

“…a magnificient book. I read it mornings and evenings on the train, Kleenex in hand, weeping. But laughing too. I have to thank you for opening my eyes to the humanity of a group of people I would formerly, out of discomfort and fear, shunned.   My (by now very dog-eared) copy will live on the bookshelf dedicated to my favorite books.
-Deborah Way, O (Oprah) magazine
