The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

Jean-Dominique Bauby was a magazine editor who suffered a stroke in 1995 at the age of 43 and was left completely paralyzed, except for his left eye. However, his affliction did not affect his mind. Bauby blinked out every letter of his memoir to describe the aspects of his interior world.
