Do Clouds Rest? collects a series of short observations about his mother, originally posted on Facebook. In the months before her death, Hicks' mother lived in an assisted-living community just a few blocks from him, and he made a point of visiting her every day, even if just for a few minutes. These observations are from the time they spent together, and center around the memory loss she went through.
Dr. Hicks is among the most well-spoken (and well-written) people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, so it's no surprise to me that the same is true here. There is humor, there is wit, there is frustration and pain. And while Hicks does not whitewash the difficulties of an end-of-life experience, the feeling that comes through is an evenness and sensitivity that feels exactly right. I don't know how else to describe it.
This book is a beautiful, loving tribute to Hicks' mother. I recommend it to everyone.
