Two stories alternate in this book, dovetailing to a satisfying denouement. Joseph wakens in a strange house with no memory of who he is, a stranger with ID. He begins a journey to discover his identity in the company of an accommodating young man. Antoinette is caught in the clutches of Alzheimer's and dreams of her late husband. Her recently divorced, out-of-work son visits her daily in the assisted living facility and cooks many of her culinary creations which she named after friends, neighbors, family, and events. This book is a most satisfying read. The author based the relationship of the protagonists on his parents' bond.
Food - Many of the meals prepared by Antoinette's son are described in great detail, including ingredients and methodologies.
