How Lulu Lost Her Mind

Narrator Stephanie Einstein takes the listener on an emotional roller- coaster ride. After her mother, Patricia, is kicked out of her nursing home, Lou Ann Hunter brings her to their family's decrepit plantation in Louisiana. Patricia is suffering from Alzheimer's, and listeners feel the emotional ups and downs that go along with her illness. Einstein expertly vocalizes Lou Ann's frustration and pain, but she also conveys the humor of her mother's shenanigans. Mother and daughter are easily distinguished. Listeners can envision everything from ramshackle manse to the bright red lipstick Patricia insists on wearing and the family parrot who comes with the house. S.B. � AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
