Produktbeschreibung
Catherine suffers from Alzheimer's disease. David feels diminished by his career. This mother and son are bound by both blood and their love of Alabama's Deep South natural beauty-and now by challenges to their very being, how they perceive themselves, and how they move forward in life. Drawing on his years as the son-in-law of someone with Alzheimer's as well as his own challenges with work, author George Wayland Taylor wrote King of Coosa to explore what it's like to live under stifling conditions. Tracing the unique but parallel paths of this mother and son-Catherine as she speaks for herself during her lucid moments and David as he physically moves through Tuscaloosa County and the Black Belt of Alabama to engage himself and others-Taylor asks, Will they each find resolution and peace? Can they?
