Author Lisa Genova returns with Inside the O'Briens (Gallery), a new novel that does for Huntington's Disease what her debut, Still Alice, did for Alzheimer's. Joe O'Brien is a 44-year-old police officer who begins experiencing bouts of disorganized thinking, temper outbursts, and strange, involuntary movements. He initially attributes these episodes to job stress, but as the symptoms worsen, he agrees to see a neurologist and is handed a diagnosis that will change his and his family's lives forever. Genova has once again delivered a novel as powerful as the human insights at its core.
