1. "Comfortably warm in her fleece, Alice took her time walking home, enjoying the cold autumn air smell and the crunchy swishing sound her feet made as they strolled through the piles of leaves." 
Alice and her husband John both love the work that they tae part in and rarely take the time to enjoy their surroundings. This allows us the reader to feel the comfort and joy that Alice experiences as the fall season is in full bloom. This blissful moment that Alice experiences is only created because of her lacking to remember she was supposed to be on her way to Chicago. This peaceful moment is, the the calm before the storm, the moment that Alice realizes there is truly something wrong with herself.
"Her colleagues were all brilliant and odd, quick to help and argue, ambitious and humble. They were family."
Alice and her colleagues are very found of each other, and respect the work that each of them produce. This quote allows us to picture a warm group of staff, all having their own quirks and flaws, they are all equal in Alice's eyes. It allows us to know that Alice has a network of people in her life who care a lot about her, and her about them. 


2. Alice is  a hardworking psychology professor at Harvard. She works in a dull looking building called the William James Hall, however she has a unobstructed view of the Charles River and Boston's Back Bay from her office. When Alice had started working she worked in a windowless room and would tend to work far into the night without knowing it. Now that she has earned her higher position being on the tenth floor, it shows her superiority in the department.
Alice is a keen runner, which allows her to relieve her stresses at all hours of the day or night. She lives very near the famous Harvard Square which her running route takes her through. It is in the Harvard Square on normal afternoon that Alice has her first shock. This average afternoon was the day that Alice started to realize that her memory was beginning to fade when she could not remember her way home.
