He has made his story universal, yet personal and relatable. Review In THE PSP CHRONICLES, author Tim Brown struggles to write to a place of peace after receiving a life-changing diagnosis. Soon after Brown discovers that his memory lapses, his changed gait, and his moodiness are all attributed to Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), a rare neurodegenerative disorder similar to Parkinson's, he begins a journal to record his experiences. THE PSP CHRONICLES is the memoir-esque result of these efforts. In his narrative, Brown works hard to record the daily burden of living with a neurodegenerative disease. Keeping this record of his daily life helps him realize that his faith has enabled him to lay by inner stores of hope upon which he can still draw. Without a better sense of Brown's pre-diagnosis family life, work life, and personal life, readers have to strain to grasp the post-diagnosis fall-out. Despite this--and perhaps because of it--Brown's narrative can be affecting. THE PSP CHRONICLES is not meant to explain PSP or to give readers comprehensive (or even objective) insight into PSP's destructive path. Instead, THE PSP CHRONICLES is meant to show readers how an unexpected, incredibly difficult, and life-altering diagnosis has affected the life of this man Tim Brown. As Brown writes, "This story and subsequent books aren't meant to be perfect written works. This is a true story of my personal journey with a rare,terminal brain disease." In this sense, Brown doesn't have to explain how his external and internal life have been devastated: It's written on the page. THE PSP CHRONICLES is raw, because the journal is delivered as-is; it is episodic and not organized as a tension-driven story. It provides insight into an every man's experience writing through a devastating disease. Amy Edelman IndieReader About the Author T.J.
