The River of Consciousness by Oliver Sacks
3.0
Pale shadow of his earlier work. Writing feels disconnected and many topics feel shallow-ly pursued. I’m a big fan of the author but this work is a disappointment.
From the forward: “Two weeks before his death in August 2015, Oliver Sacks outlined the contents of The River of Consciousness, the last book he would oversee, and charged the three of us with arranging for its publication.”
That’s what it reads like, a book that got assembled after his death.
