One good reason to read Love Anthony is to experience the impact autism has on family life. The story takes place on Cape Cod where two women, whose lives have fallen apart,  meet. One, a mother of an autistic son who has died at age 5, and the other who turns to writing as her marriage fails. The writer becomes obsessed with capturing the inner experience of an autistic child, giving projected meaning to the repetitive movements associated with autism. It is a beautiful volume, filled with compassion, written by Lisa Genova (Still Alice and Left Neglected). (Simon & Schuster,2013.pap$16)  ~Barbara Siepker & Anne Wiesen
