Polkorolevstva - Segal L.

In the novel by the American writer Laura Segal "Polkingdoms" doctors of New York hospital "Lebanese cedars" notice that among their patients with mysterious speed spreads Alzheimer's disease. What's the reason? In aging, according to doctors, or in the machinations of terrorists, who intended to bring the end of the world closer, as the retired scientist Joe Bernstein suggests. To get to the truth, Joe Bernstein introduces in a few Kafkaesque world hospitals a group of his friends with their adult children. "Polkingdoms" is a hilariously funny and at the same time piercingly poignant story about how old people live, love and die in America. "One of the best books of 2013." The New York Times
