A World of Light by Floyd Skloot
“Skloot . . . write[s] an engaging and powerful essay. . . . The author is a talented writer for whom literary creativity is clearly an essential part of how he navigates life with his own memory impairment. . . . The book is recommended for medical humanities courses, especially those for which writings on the experience of neurologic devastation would be worthwhile. The essays are well written and at times quite amusing, despite the seriousness of the topic.”
*Starred Review* “This collection of brilliant essays bears witness to the astonishing strength, spirit, and sense of humor with which [Skloot] has reconstructed his life and personal history.”
