Join us to discuss this powerful memoir about love, marriage, and difficult decisions at end of life.
Join Senior Services librarian Jillian McKeown for a discussion of the book, In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss by Amy Bloom. In her compelling, beautiful and sometimes heartbreaking memoir, Amy Bloom retells her experience of exploring assisted suicide with her husband after his Alzheimer's diagnosis. Bloom details the intensely strong bonds that often transpire between two people in a relationship, and the honest, sometimes sobering decisions that result from those moments.
