This was a quick read, a different style for telling of the fading memory of a mother and the reaction of her daughter and granddaughters.
Hannah is losing her present memory but those of her past in WWII and losing her family become sharper and confused with today. It's hard on her only child, Miranda, and challenging for her two granddaughters just beginning their adult lives.
I think the book could have had much more substance with deeper stories about the daughter and her husband and her relationships with her daughters. The character development was sketchy and left the reader to fill in the blanks.
