Lester L. Laminack, Books, Fiction and Literature, Fiction, The Sunsets Of Miss Olivia Wiggins, This poignant tale tells of a woman residing in a nursing home who seems to live in a world of memories. Although Miss Olivia is unable to respond and doesn?t always seem to notice her family, her daughter Angel and grandson Troy know better. Anything from a beautiful sunset to the mention of her porch swing can take her back into her past, from when she was just a little girl out on the farm with her papa or back to a recent birthday shared with her daughter. She can no longer do the things she used to do, but she?s still their Momma Olivia. Laminack treats a difficult topic with great care, giving voice to the seldom discussed tragedy of watching a loved one slip into the past in terms children can understand. Bergum?s delicate watercolors also give soft expression to the love that holds a family together during times of hardship.
