A Man and a Woman and a Man2001

"Hamutal is married, the mother of two teenaged daughters, and the editor of a respected psychology journal. She has always kept a complicated life under control. But taking care of her mother, a Holocaust survivor suffering from Alzheimer's disease, adds a nearly insupportable degree of responsibility and a burden of grief. Daily visits trigger memories of her own lonely childhood and disturbing revelations of her mother's wartime experiences. At home, Hamutal's husband and daughters distance themselves, preoccupied with their own lives. And so it begins: in the parking lot of the nursing home, Hamutal exchanges a few words with a man in a green jacket. He has come from Chicago to care for his dying father. Within a few days, she can think of no one else."--BOOK JACKET.
