What makes you want to read beyond the cover or blurb?

The story line. The blurbs.Then: the first page. One chance at getting me to
read on, the first page and sometimes the first line!

A Selection of TESTIMONIALS

Cathie Borrie's groundbreaking lyrical memoir, "A Long Hello", utilizes
arrestingly poetic prose to create an ideological sea change in the way in
which individuals and society at large view the experience of Alzheimer's,
shining new light on the rich emotional and intellectual ways of being that
are newly possible in the altering world of the dementia mind.
Francesca Rosenberg Director, Community and Access Programs MoMA, NYC

Brave, playful, and inspiring - this little book manages to capture the
enormity of all that is Alzheimer's with elegant simplicity.
Anne Davis Basting (PhD) Director, UWM Center on Age & Community; author
"Forget Memory: Creating better lives for people with dementia."

A masterpiece . . .
An absorbing and fascinating account, beautifully written and of value to
all engaged in the care of Alzheimer’s patients—from care-giving relatives
to those providing medical and social services to the ever growing number of
patients.
Dr. D.A. Henderson Professor of Medicine and Public Health, University of
Pittsburgh; author of  "Smallpox: Death of a Disease" (Prometheus Books,
2009)
