Christmas Gift Guide 2021: Gifts for Women: Like Falling Through a Cloud: A Lyrical Memoir

I would like to ask you to check out our latest addition in our Christmas Gift Guide: Gifts for Women: Like Falling Through A Cloud: A Lyrical Memoir written by Eugenia Zukerman’s. I received this copy in exchange for a spot in our Christmas Gift Guide.

As a child my Grandfather had Alzheimer’s and watching my dad seeing his dad not know who he was is Heartbreaking and I thank the Lord neither of my parents didn’t end up with Alzheimer’s and I PRAY David and I don’t either because I wouldn’t want Charlie to have to see us like that. But to prepare our family once Christmas has passed we will be sitting down as a family and reading Like Falling Through A Cloud: A Lyrical Memoir. Would you like to join us and read this new book with us.

What if the dreaded world of Alzheimer’s was also a world of emotional discovery? Eugenia Zukerman’s Poetry and simple prose, both heartbreaking and ultimately inspirational, ushers the reader into her world as she unflinchingly examines familial loyalties, moments from her past and present, and the need to face an uncertain future due to the Diagnosis of a condition that she truly hopes “will remain unnamed.”

Flutist, writer, artistic director of major music series, television journalist, educator and internet entrepreneur, Zukerman addresses her “lapses and losses” as she confronts and deals with a future under the shadow of her Alzheimer’s Diagnosis.

Touching, honest, and fearlessly heartfelt, Like Falling Through a Cloud recounts Zukerman’s discovery, consultations, and diagnosis, all while navigating the death of her 103-year-old mother, a performance at the Kennedy Center, and the consolidation of her life via a full-time move to upstate New York. As she finds strength in family love, self-examination, and the enduring power of creating music, Zukerman teaches us the importance of living in the now, while accepting that what comes next may remain a mystery.
