This week I’m recommending a French book I read a while back, which has also been adapted as a movie. I can’t speak for the movie as I haven’t seen in, but the book is beautifully written and deeply heartbreaking. The author of the book, Jean-Dominique Bauby, suffered a massive stroke, which led to him getting a condition named locked-in syndrome. Trapped in his own body, Bauby wrote this whole book by blinking with his left eye.
