An estranged brother and sister reconnect in this moving novel from "perhaps the most significant lesbian fiction writer of the 20th century" (Katherine V. Forrest, author of
Curious Wine).
When the novel opens, Diana's twin brother, David, a widower in his mid-sixties, is looking back on his life. As memories swamp him, he decides to take a critical step: to beg for his sister's forgiveness.
Diana has never met David's two daughters. She has no idea how many grandchildren he has. David doesn't know Diana's longtime lover, Constance, housebound by advancing memory loss and for whom Diana writes the day's events on an erasable board to help her keep track of a life that's slipping away. Estranged for nearly forty years, David appears at Diana's dinner table, throwing her life into turmoil. But as she and her brother begin to rediscover each other, they both find the strength to move on with their lives.
Told in Diana and David's alternating points of view,
Memory Board makes a powerful case for living in the present and making every moment count.
