Letters for Emily


by Camron Wright
Rated G
Harry is an old man afflicted with early-stage Alzheimer's disease. Knowing his "good" days are numbered, he sets out to leave a legacy for his family through the poems he writes.
After his eventual death, Harry's family discovers his book of poems. Witty, insightful, and quirky, the poems also hide clues to a greater treasure that Harry left behind. As his family works to untangle the mystery of the poems, they also find themselves working to heal their fractured relationships, both with each other, and with Harry.
Sweet but not sappy, you'll find little gems in this novel that will remind you what's really important in life, and that everything is not always as it seems to be. Squeaky clean, too!
