Lisa Genova, the author of Still Alice, has done it again. She has taken a every serious medical issue, combined it with a believable, intelligent main character and created an informative, realistic and hopeful story. I had never heard of Left Neglect until reading this story. Sarah, our main character seems to have everything she wants, a high powered job, a loving husband, three children, a beautiful home and an unending schedule, on which she seems to thrive. Genova describes beautifully, what that life is like. Sarah's life is a whirlwind of "must dos". She revels in the fact that she can do it all, although sometimes her subconscious is telling her otherwise. This life abruptly changes when Sarah is involved in an automobile accident that leaves her with frontal lobe brain damage. While she survives the crash and is physically recovering, her brain no longer recognizes the left side of her body. Genova takes us through Sarah's responses beginning with denial that anything is wrong, through realization of her situation and on to adjustments that alter her life and, in the process bring her a new happiness. A side story of particular interest is her relationship with her mother. We learn that Sarah lost her brother in a drowning accident when they were children and that her mother was never the same after that. Sarah felt abandoned and alone and as she grew and married, she lost touch with her mother in every real sense. Following the accident, her mother comes back into her life, offering help. We can see ourselves in Lisa's characters. We can feel the emotions and the disappointments and we can only hope that we can rise above our challenges, much as Sarah does in this book.
This book was recommended by my neurologist. I suffer from left neglect due to a recent stroke, but didn't understand it.. The author is a hoot. She can take a subject that's so serious and make it so relatable.By the middle, I was thanking my lucky stars that I didn't experience anything as severe as the subject of this book did. I didn't read Still Alice, another of this author's novels, but I saw the film. The author is doing a great service by writing about these neurological conditions in such a human way. By the end, I understood left neglect do much better than I have from just reading medical websites, or having therapists who haven't experienced it tell me about it.Highly recommended.
Negatives: The beginning was pretty slow for me (though that may be partially because I was reading too many books at the same time). Once the book did pick up, I still had a hard time getting into it because I'm a bit squeamish. Some of the recovery details were vividly described and I just had a hard time reading a lot of chapters at a time.Positives: I learned a ton about a condition I didn't even know existed and once I got about 40% of the way through I couldn't put it down. Also, it was so inspirational and in the end was more about perseverance and family than the actual tragedy. I loved all the family dynamics; they felt real and very nuanced. Sarah felt genuine with all her varied and conflicting emotions; she's proud of her success but feels guilty for the time it takes away from her family. I can relate to that, even if I don't actually have kids yet. Sarah and Bob's relationship was strong but they had their own issues throughout. The deep-seated turmoil between Sarah and her mom was probably what I connected to most and I thought it was well done. I guess my point is that this wasn't just a dry medical story to teach us about a relatively unknown condition: we get to truly see how a person with this condition would experience life.
I wanted to love this boo but it just didn't happen. As someone with left neglect, although not as bad as the book's main character, I would say that the portrayal is unrealistic.Firstly, Sarah must have been in the worst rehab hospital in the country. When I was in rehad they had an alarm on my bed and on my wheelchair to make sure I didn't get up without professional supervision. Even using the bathroom required someone to go with me, door open. Sometimes this was a man, which was embarrassing, but hey, there is no privacy when you're in the hospital. When I started walking, my therapist always used a support belt on me until they were sure I was stable enough to walk on my own. I NEVER fell down. They NEVER let me walk into things. THey NEVER left me alone in the therapy room/gym.Also, why wasn't her head bandaged after surgery? The test they gave her to see if she was blind would not have proved that she wasn't blind to the left (left homonymous hemianopsia, which I have). In either case, the finger would have disappeared as soon as it went to the left of the midpoint. Why didn't she complain or mention the extreme pain after brain surgery? I had a brain hemorrhage which is probably not as painful as being in a car crash since you would probably have other injuries. Brain surgery is the most painful thing I can even imagine, and I really try not to remember it. But I did have a double crainiotomy so maybe mine was more painful than average.She doesn't mention running into walls, doors, people, whatever except at the beginning. This is something I deal with everyday. When she lost Linus, she was able to "run" down the sidewalk without running into anyone, something I can't imagine. She is also able to scan to the left with a lot more success than I have. It's very hard to remember to do something when you've forgotten about it pretty much by definition. She also never mentions that your brain makes up excuses for how things make sense without the left side. This is almost impossible to fight since it's your own brain so you naturally believe it.I'm giving it two stars (instead of one) because it at least addresses this disability which few people know about.
