I don't know why I didn't expect much from this book but I was very wrong.  Once I started, I couldn't put it down.It hit me exactly where I'm living now!  At 59 - and already realizing how much I've forgotten - I'm caring for my 88 year old Mom.  She does not have dementia.  Her mind is good but her body no longer lets her do what she wants.This book, written by a "middle-ager" who is remembering his youth and closeness to his grandfather while dealing with placing his Mother in a nursing home, sort of blends all the times of our lives together.Very moving.
