520    "Bringing together insights from masculinity studies and 
       age studies for the first time, this volume focuses on the
       gendered and relational perspectives in cultural 
       representations of Alzheimer's disease. In the cultural 
       context of many societies, Alzheimer's disease has come to
       represent the 'dark side' of longevity in the 21st 
       century. While the dream of a long life has become a real 
       possibility for many people, it has simultaneously given 
       rise to new anxieties focused on cultural fears of 
       'demented' old age. In expert discourse as well as in 
       personal accounts, Alzheimer's has produced what might be 
       called a 'master narrative' that limits representation and
       narration and questions traditional views of selfhood and 
       human development. Combining a comparative and 
       interdisciplinary approach with a gendered perspective, 
       the essays in this volume engage with Alzheimer's as a 
       disease of ageing masculinities, drawing on 
       representations of the disease in many different cultural 
       contexts. Examining a broad range of source material, 
       including memoir, film, poetry and prose fiction, this 
       book looks at work from a wide range of authors, including
       Anne Carson, Philip Roth and Jonathan Franzen."--
