Description
When Anna Forster, a vibrant young woman diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, moves into a residential care home, she finds herself surrounded by people whose memories and identities are gradually slipping away. There, she forms an unexpected bond with Eve Bennett, an older resident with a guarded past, while Eve’s daughter, Clementine, struggles to reconcile her mother’s condition with the woman she remembers. Moving between the perspectives of residents and family members, this emotionally resonant novel explores memory, identity, love, and the enduring connections that remain when so much else is lost.
