"Imagine Alzheimer's sufferers and their loved ones treading water in a choppy sea of exhaustion and despair. Now picture Nancy Lagomarsino's "Light From an Eclipse" as a life preserver, airborne and spinning toward them -- a missile of hope and survival. The book is, in equal measures, heartrending and celebratory of the beauty and buoyancy of life in the face of death. I read this book moved and shaken by its poetic sensibility, its wisdom and the gift of its grace." -- Wally Lamb
