Lillie Claire Glidden is unraveling. She knows she's in trouble
when she finds her wallet and keys deep in the refrigerator,
smelling of lettuce and forgetfulness. And not even her favorite
California red wine can dull the pain of the dreaded diagnosis:
Alzheimer's. As language starts to fail her and words disappear,
Lillie Claire is determined to find a way to pass on the lessons
she learned as a child on a Southern porch. Surrounded by family
and caregivers, she fights to hold on to the details of her life,
and to recognize the woman in the mirror for as long as possible.
Told from Lillie Claire's perspective, All the Dancing Birds offers
beautiful and terrifying insight into the secret mind of those
touched-and ultimately changed-by the mystery of Alzheimer's
disease.
