The House on Beartown Road: A Memoir of Learning and Forgetting by Elizabeth Cohen

4.0

This is a wonderful touching book about a woman who is raising her 1 year old daughter while at the same time caring for her father who is suffering from "Alzenheimers" as he calls it. Great parallels to the circle of life from where we began to where we sometimes end. The book is effective without being overly sentimental and sloppy - somewhat of a third person point of view written from a first person perspective. It stays with you after you close the last page which to me always says a lot about a book.
