Be With
Summary
Drawing on the author’s seven years of caring for his mother through Alzheimer's, Be With: Letters to a Caregiver is what its title promises: four dispatches to an anonymous long-term caregiver. In brief passages that cast fresh light on what it means to live with dementia, Barnes shares trials, insights, solace - and, ultimately, inspiration. Meant to be a companion in waiting rooms, on bus routes, or while a loved one naps, Be With is a dippable source of clarity for harried listeners who might only have time for a few lines. Mike Barnes writes with sensitivity and grace about fellowship, responsibility, and joyful relatedness - what it means to simply be with the people that we love.

The Adjustment League
Summary
"Fiercely alive, marked by a sharp, unerring eye for detail and a wonderful way with metaphors." (Toronto Star) At a psychiatric hospital in the '80s, patients formed what they called The Adjustment League to protect themselves against the depredations of a corrupt and abusive staff. Many years later, the leader of this group - a man known only as "The Super" - receives a letter leading to the discovery of a pornographic ring in need of "adjustment". Mike Barnes is the author of eight previous books. Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, he lives and writes in Toronto, Ontario.
