AnnotationHow do we "read" dementia and how much insight might people have into their own condition? This article explores what it would mean to approach dementia, and the language and behaviour of people with dementia, as if analysing a book or a poem. The author discusses an investigative project based on the stories of three people who lived in the same care home. (RH).
