Unsound Mind

In mountain town Haverhill, NC, ex-activist Jocelyn Bassi is 72 and losing her mind—and gaining an exciting, if dangerous and confusing, new power: The Foible. This mysterious ability enables Jocelyn to fulfill her lifelong goal—transforming people’s conflict into connected compassion.

Jocelyn and her older brother, Peter, love The Foible and wield it locally, person by person, with desirable or dreadful results. Until they hit shocking national resistance … Turns out not every corporation, or politician, wants a better world.

But what is this Foible?

The novel asks … What if there’s an upside to dementia?
