When Your Mind Becomes a Stranger
What defines you when the very thing that makes you "you" begins to disappear? Alice Howland is fifty years old, standing at the peak of her career as a Harvard psychology professor specializing in linguistics. Her days overflow with graduate seminars, international conferences, and groundbreaking research on language acquisition. She's brilliant, successful, respected-until the day she can't find the word "lexicon" during a keynote at Stanford. Then she gets lost jogging through Harvard Square, a route she's run for twenty years. When neurologist Dr. Davis confirms early-onset Alzheimer's, Alice faces a devastating truth: the mind she's spent her entire life cultivating will systematically betray her. Worse, genetic testing reveals she carries a mutation that gives each of her three children a fifty-percent chance of the same fate. This isn't just a medical diagnosis-it's a dismantling of identity itself.
