In 1995, Jean-Dominique Bauby was the editor-in-chief of FrenchElle, the father of two young childen, a 44-year-old man known and loved for his wit, his style, and his impassioned approach to life. By the end of the year he was also the victim of a rare kind of stroke to the brainstem. After 20 days in a coma, Bauby awoke into a body which had all but stopped working: only his left eye functioned, allowing him to see and, by blinking it, to make clear that his mind was unimpaired. Almost miraculously, he was soon able to express himself in the richest detail: dictating a word at a time, blinking to select each letter as the alphabet was recited to him slowly, over and over again. In the same way, he was able eventually to compose this extraordinary book. By turns wistful, mischievous, angry, and witty, Bauby bears witness to his determination to live as fully in his mind as he had been able to do in his body. He explains the joy, and deep sadness, of seeing his children and of hearing his aged father's voice on the phone. In magical sequences, he imagines traveling to other places and times and of lying next to the woman he loves. Fed only intravenously, he imagines preparing and tasting the full flavor of delectable dishes. Again and again he returns to an "inexhaustible reservoir of sensations," keeping in touch with himself and the life around him. Jean-Dominique Bauby died two days after the French publication ofThe Diving Bell and the Butterfly. This book is a lasting testament to his life.

评分一、死亡的预留席 死亡是餐厅角落的预留席。总有一天,每个人都会坐上那个位子。在深知这个事实的同时,每个人也尽量对那个位子视而不见,自动扫入眼角的盲区,推说死亡过于遥远。于是,对于生活中随处可见的死亡,人们也尽量忽略不计——当叶子从枝头“唉呀”一声飘...
评分——宇宙中,是否有一把钥匙可以解开我的潜水钟? 有没有一列没有终点的地铁? 哪一种强势货币可以让我买回自由? 应该要去其它地方找。 我去了,去找找。 为薄薄一本书,我两次失常:终于对得起书店,买下一本十五分钟就翻完了的书;摊开本子,不为友人不为考试,单纯写篇读...
