Estuary

Description

Estuary is an extremely candid account of the twilight years of author Graham Hurley’s parents, Peg and Stan. An only child, living apart from his mum and dad for most of his life, Graham and his wife Lin find themselves coping with situations beyond imagining as dementia and a series of strokes exact a savage price. “I wanted to share the journey all four of us made,” says Graham, “because it seemed then, as it seems now, so profoundly mad and so profoundly important. This may lie in wait for all of us, the ghosts behind the door we never want to open.”
