Love and Care is a beautifully heartfelt and gently humorous account of a son caring for his mother who has Parkinson’s Dementia whilst getting to grips with his own post-divorce life. With his mother in a care home, Shaun Deeney knew he had a choice to make: leave her there, or give up his new-found freedom to care for her. A hugely timely publication, as the number of carers in UK is significantly rising year on year.

‘An honest and thoughtful memoir. Moving but, ultimately, full of hope. Beautiful.’ Kate Mosse
