The French editor of Elle magazine, Jean-Dominique Bauby, who, in 1995 at the age of 43, suffered a stroke that paralyzed his entire body, except his left eye. Using that eye to blink out his memoir, Bauby eloquently described the aspects of his interior world, from the psychological torment of being trapped inside his body to his imagined stories from lands he'd only visited in his mind.

Contents: Scaphandre et le papillon.

diving bell submitted by hcf on August 2, 2014, 5:06pm what an amazing story! i really enjoyed this.

Superb! submitted by LVDS on July 5, 2020, 2:17pm Incredibly WELL DONE. A sad yet wonderful story from the perspective of being in a coma and awakening....to find you've had a stroke, to writing a book, while "locked" within. POWERFUL!
