Reviews

"In her debut, journalist Kapsambelis builds a compelling narrative about Alzheimer's disease around one North Dakota extended family. . . . An educational and emotional chronicle that should resonate with a wide variety of readers.-- ""Kirkus Starred Review"" ""A model of immersion journalism, it is especially notable for its specificity and author Niki Kapsambelis' empathy. The DeMoes laid bare their lives, and Kapsambelis repays their candor with a warts-and-all portrait softened by fondness and respect."" -- ""Chicago Tribune"" ""At its most compelling, The Inheritance is a portrait of the DeMoes' experience as both Alzheimer's sufferers and research subjects."" -- ""Wall Street Journal"" ""In sometimes heartbreaking detail, The Inheritance describes the impact of the disease on individual family members."" -- ""Pittsburgh Post-Gazette"""
