Great Circle: A Read with Jenna Pick by Maggie Shipstead

Boomer's Bust is a story of one man's courageous battle with Alzheimer's disease. Despite his steadfast determination to beat its debilitating effects, he slowly loses his grip on reality and enters a surreal and abstract world. The reader is taken for an enthralling journey through the inner passages of his troubled mind.

Incredibly, every 70 seconds, a new case of dementia is diagnosed in North America. One in 11 seniors will develop it. And the demographic shift of the Baby Boomers generation has only just begun. Boomer's Bust is a gift of solace packaged in a heartfelt message to all of us....

Maggie Shipstead is a former Wallace Stegner Fellow at Stanford University and a graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop. Astonish Me is her most recent book.
