I believe the entire point of the book is to be a sort of comparison against dementia, especially with how the mutation progresses. The parallels are uncanny and it almost definitely reminds me of it.

Beautiful writing, a tragic story, an abrupt ending.
This is definitly one of the strangest books ive read just because of the story line, it definitly intrigued me.
I was wanting to finish it but now I'm sad it's over. 😅
Honestly it was quite hard to rate this.
There were parts I didn't enjoy just because it was hard to listen to but was sweet at times and sad. Glad to have listened to it.
TW:
One of the characters has an abusive relationship, doesn't go into to much detail but was enough to turn my stomach.
Moderate: Domestic abuse, Physical abuse, and Grief
Minor: Cursing
