Description: "Falling season is shaped by an exquisite sense of craft and consciousness that is rare to find in a first book. As the illness of Lewy body dementia ruthlessly dismantles her mother's identity, the narrator's identity also crumbles. She cannot "fix" it. She is being changed too. Beth Kope wrestles with one of our most vexing sources of human suffering: the melancholy of meaning. She gives us a visceral experience of breaking paths to different ways of perception and intimacy." --Back cover.
