Bird-bent grass : a memoir, in pieces

Summary: "<i>Bird-Bent Grass</i> chronicles an extraordinary mother daughter relationship that spans distance, time, and, eventually, debilitating illness. Personal, familial, and political narratives unfold through the letters that Geeske Venema-de Jong and her daughter Kathleen exchanged during the late 1980s and through their weekly conversations, which started after Geeske was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease twenty years later."--
