Produktbeschreibung

´The story of a disease that plunged its victims into a prison of viscous time, and the drug that catapulted them out of it´ Guardian Hailed as a medical classic, and the subject of a major feature film as well as radio and stage plays and various TV documentaries, Awakenings is the extraordinary account of a group of twenty patients. Rendered catatonic by the sleeping-sickness epidemic that swept the world just after the First World War, all twenty had spent forty years in hospital: motionless and speechless; aware of the world around them, but exhibiting no interest in it - until Dr Sacks administered the then-new drug, L-DOPA, which caused them, temporarily, to awake from their decades-long slumber. ´A brilliant and humane book´ Observer ´Not only a collection of astonishing case histories, Awakenings is also a memoir, a moral essay and a romance. It is a work of genius´ Washington Post ´It makes you aware of what a knife edge we live on´ Doris Lessing
