SaraLeon reviewed Awakenings by Oliver Sacks
Review of 'Awakenings' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Another great book of medical and life anecdotes, questioning our perception of time and quality of life. The stories were moving, both in a sadening and joyous way. Lay people might need to look up some terminology, but all in all I think it's written wonderfully and insightful. The openness and compassion of Oliver Sacks is palpable.
