Beschreibung:
Eliezer Sobel is also the author of Blue Sky, White Clouds: A Book for Memory-Challenged Adults. Among 20,000 books for caregivers, this is one of the only books for the patient. A simple picture book, it requires no memory to read and enjoy. If you are caring for a loved one with dementia, this book provides a shared activity that can stimulate tender moments of connection regardless of their stage of memory-loss.
Winner of the Peter Taylor Prize for the Novel, Minyan is both bittersweet and hilarious in a way that hurts to laugh. It is the tale of Norbert Wilner, a man who has mastered the art of arrested development who, at 37, is still single and living in New York City, surrounded by the Jewish guys he grew up with in Jersey. They are all searching for God, women, and most of all, a good pastrami-on-rye with spicy brown mustard, a side of potato salad and a cream soda.
