Requests:  0 Summary:  Based on the "field notes" she keeps in her journal, Memory's Last Breath is Saunders' astonishing window into a life distorted by dementia. She writes about shopping trips cut short by unintentional shoplifting, car journeys derailed when she loses her bearings, and the embarrassment of forgetting what she has just said to a room of colleagues. Coping with the complications of losing short-term memory, Saunders nonetheless embarks on a personal investigation of the brain and its mysteries, examining science and literature, and immersing herself in vivid memories of her childhood in South Africa.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 362.19683 Saunders Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19683 SAUNDERS Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19683 Saunders Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19683 Saunders Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
