About “Awakenings”
This 1973 non-fiction book recounts a group of 20 patients who survived the sleeping-sickness epidemic of the 1920s and experienced an explosive "awakening" 40 years later through the drug L-DOPA, administered by Dr. Sacks. Their moving, courageous, and sometimes tragic stories explore health, disease, suffering, care, and the human condition.
