Join our book club to participate in discussion & movie showing to follow a series from New York Times' bestselling author and neuroscientist Lisa Genova. This definitive and illuminating novel about Alzheimer’s disease. Now a major motion picture starring Oscar winner Julianne Moore! Alice Howland is proud of the life she worked so hard to build. At fifty years old, she’s a cognitive psychology professor at Harvard and a world-renowned expert in linguistics with a successful husband and three grown children. When she becomes increasingly disoriented and forgetful, a tragic diagnosis changes her life—and her relationship with her family and the world—forever. As she struggles to cope with Alzheimer’s, she learns that her worth is comprised of far more than her ability to remember. At once beautiful and terrifying, still Alice is a moving and vivid depiction of life with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease that is as compelling as A Beautiful Mind and as unforgettable as Ordinary People.
