Still Alice

by Lisa Genova

'Still Alice' is a poignant and impactful novel by Lisa Genova that explores the harrowing journey of Alice Howland, a Harvard professor who faces the unthinkable when diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease. As her memory starts to fade, Alice confronts the loss of her academic identity and navigates the shifting dynamics within her family who are bound by love, history, and the shared urgency to hold onto the Alice they know. Through this intimate portrayal of a woman grappling with a dwindling grasp on her life's achievements, the novel sheds light on the relentless progress of Alzheimer's while celebrating the enduring human spirit in the face of adversity.
