About this product

Product Information

In Lisa Genova's extraordinary New York Times bestselling novel, an accomplished woman slowly loses her thoughts and memories to Alzheimer's disease--only to discover that each day brings a new way of living and loving. Now a major motion picture starring Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin, Kate Bosworth, and Kristen Stewart! Alice Howland, happily married with three grown children and a house on the Cape, is a celebrated Harvard professor at the height of her career when she notices a forgetfulness creeping into her life. As confusion starts to cloud her thinking and her memory begins to fail her, she receives a devastating diagnosis: early onset Alzheimer's disease. Fiercely independent, Alice struggles to maintain her lifestyle and live in the moment, even as her sense of self is being stripped away. In turns heartbreaking, inspiring, and terrifying, Still Alice captures in remarkable detail what it's like to literally lose your mind... Reminiscent of A Beautiful Mind , Ordinary People, and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time , Still Alice packs a powerful emotional punch and marks the arrival of a strong new voice in fiction.

    Great Book

    I wish I had read this book before my Mom passed. She had Dementia, gave me a better understanding of what she had went through. I just passed it to a friend who's husband was diagnosed with alzhiemers.

  • Engrossing, informative, sad and comforting.

    I bought this book because my 88 year old Mom has early stage Alzheimer's Disease. I was immediately drawn into the story of Alice, who was 50 and was experiencing symptoms of Early Onset Alzheimer's. So many of her experiences parallel what my Mom has gone through. This book was very informative, and gave me a lot of insight as to what a person with Alzheimer's likely feels, thinks, and experiences. I would recommend this book to anyone who knows anyone with Alzheimer's disease. My thanks to the Author for writing this wonderful book.

  • Still Alice

    Heartwrenching novel about Alzheimer's told from the diagnosed patient's view. Wow, a real eye opener. I have shared it with 3 family members who experience it on a daily basis.
