Description

I'll See You In My Dreams: A Sister's Memoir is an unforgettable portrait of sibling love as told by Larkin McPhee, a Peabody and Emmy awardwinning documentary filmmaker, and her dreamexpert younger brother, Charles McPhee, host of the nationally syndicated radio program The Dream Doctor Show. At fortyfour, Charles's life changed forever when he was diagnosed with the fatal neurodegenerative disease ALS. Using remembered moments, dreams, emails, and excerpts from his radio show, Larkin looks back on the years with her brother, both before his diagnosis and afterward, tracing a poignant but joyful journey across time as they encourage each other's creativity and nontraditional careers. In addition to helping his radio listeners, Charles guides Larkin through her dreams and their impact on her life, helping her discover her voice as a documentary filmmaker. And in the face of insurmountable odds, Charles finds hope and beauty, ultimately showing Larkin, and all of us, how to live.
