Swimming in swirling waters of dementia, this story chronicles things we lose, from car keys to memories of fireflies, and things we try to hold onto, from our sense of self to our sense of safety. Beth Sherman explores daughter-mother experiences in novella-in-flash moments, sometimes harrowing, sometimes comical. How to Get There from Here navigates these waters with a deft hand, and demonstrates how the deepest nurturing happens in the quiet spaces between.
– Michelle Elvy, author of The Other Side of Better

With clear language that shifts easily between everyday moments and more lyrical passages, Sherman writes with honesty and restraint, making the emotional weight feel real without being overwhelming. This is a moving, accessible portrait of memory, loss, and the fragile bonds that remain even as so much slips away. A book you won’t want to miss.
– Francine Witte, Pushcart winning author of Radio Water

Beautifully crafted in luminous prose and fully grounded in its coastal location, How to Get There from Here is an unflinching yet tender story of how Lauren must now parent her mother.
