As moving as Oliver Sacks' Awakenings--a mother breaks her 20-year silence. But is it too late?

When she responds to a new medication by walking, talking and even dancing, her four grown daughters and devoted husband, Gus, are overjoyed--yet thrown into turmoil. Speaking in Jitterbug tells their story with wry humor and deep feeling.
