About this ebook:
Winner of the Wandering Aengus Book AwardForeword INDIES Silver Medal Winner (Grief/Grieving)Child of Earth and Starry Heaven is the story of a daughter coming to terms with her mother’s dementia. Binder Iooks to mythology, science, history, fiction and poetry to try to find beauty and meaning even as her mother’s cognition fails. Sad and joyous, it is a meditation on what makes us human."Binder masterfully blends classical references to the disease with modern medical attempts to find a cure. Far more moving, though, is Binder’s own emotions as she struggles to define her own role as her mother slips into Alzheimer’s oblivion....Child of Earth and Starry Heaven should be mandatory reading for anyone working in a memory care unit. I would also highly recommend it for anyone with a family member afflicted with the disease."--Michael Tidemann, Dubuque Telegraph Herald“The author writes with the probing lyriciism of a poet... Readers will admire Binder's refusal of sentimentality, observant eye and determination to grasp answers that seem always on the verge of evaporation. An illuminating and moving meditation on dementia.”—Kirkus (“Our Get It”)"The prose is infused with love, exhibiting the grace Binder found in others and for herself...Despite the book's inevitable ending, there is no sense of tragedy to be found--only kinship." --Foreword Reviews“Read L. Annette Binder’s devastatingly exhilarating chronicle of her mother Helena’s last days—it will remind you to breathe, to be stunned that you can breathe."--Michelle Latiolais, author of Widowand She"In Child of Earth and Starry Heaven, Binder turns the sadness of loss and tragedy into a thing of great beauty. It is the story of a daughter’s love for her mother suffering from dementia, and it is told skillfully, carefully, with enormous heart, grace, kindness and compassion. This is a hauntingly powerful work of the sort only the very best ofwriters may hope to achieve in a lifetime."—James Brown, author of Apology to the Young Addict   
"The devastating consequences of Alzheimer’s disease have profound implications for patients, their families, and society. Drawing on insights ranging from poetry and literature to neuroscience and neurology, L. Annette Binder provides an eloquent first-hand account of her mother’s decline into dementia. Filled with rich insight into the importance of memory and consequences of forgetting, Child of Earth and Starry Heaven is an essential book that both moves and informs."—Daniel L. Schacter, William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, and author of The Seven Sins of Memory Updated Edition (2021)“In this gorgeous memoir that bears witness to her mother’s decline and death, L. Annette Binder allows us space to explore a fundamental truth of all our 'We all build our own paradise if we’re lucky, and every one of us must leave it much too soon.' In prose that deftly combines personal memory with research and poetry, Binder weaves a tapestry that reveals the many textures of love.”—Brenda Miller, author of A Braided Essays on Writing andForm“A beautiful and deeply moving memoir about a mother’s descent into Alzheimer’s and a daughter’s quest to honor her mother through time… Binder writes with heartfelt love for our common humanity… She is a masterful writer, elegant, clear, purposeful, and wise. I didn’t want the book to end.”—Sandell Morse, author of The Spiral Shell“Child of Earth and Starry Heaven is a profound meditation on identity and consciousness.  Binder's prose is so exquisite that it borders on poetry as she charts the last few months of her mother's life and descent into Alzheimer's disease. As devastating and terrifying as dementia can be, Binder manages to find moments of grace and humor in the last precious days. This is a memoir that explores a dark topic, yet leaves the reader full of optimism and thankful for the moments of brightness.”—Pamela Klinger-Horn, Valley Bookseller and Host of Literature Lovers’ Night Out“Ancient Greeks tell of Lethe, the river of forgetting. Today’s scientists speak of fibrils. Plaques. Almost lovely words, but when present in the brain, they confuse memory and shroud the mind …though not necessarily, as L. Annette Binder finds, the essence of what it means to be human. Her mom’s favorite color was burgundy. She almost always wore pearls and was never seen without lipstick, even when shoveling snow. These shards are all the more precious as she falls into Alzheimer’s and remembers none of it. With grace and tenderness, Binder paints a portrait of her mother, revealing the woman’s verve and making our witness to her decline quietly heartbreaking. Binder’s self-portrait is compass...
