After suffering a massive stroke, Jean-Dominique Bauby, editor-in-chief of French Elle and the father of two young children, found himself completely paralysed, speechless and only able to move one eyelid. With this eyelid he 'dictated' this remarkable book.
"A staggering piece of work. It represents an almost inconceivable act of generosity, the gift of the mind and spirit for which writing was designed."
A. L. KENNEDY
"This is a memoir where the man speaks for the moment, and it is one of the great books of the century."
'Jackie Wullschlager'FINANCIAL TIMES
"Read this book and fall back in love with life."
EDMUND WHITE
