Description
Following a sudden, life-altering accident, a celebrated writer confronts the loss of physical independence and the profound changes it brings to his body, relationships, and sense of self. With striking candor, dark humor, and intellectual curiosity, this deeply personal account explores disability, ageing, creativity, desire, and mortality. It is both an intimate record of survival and a searching meditation on what it means to continue living—and writing—when the familiar structures of life have been shattered.
