Sex with a Brain Injury: On Concussion and Recovery by Annie Liontas
5.0
I learned about interiority from Annie, so it’s not surprising that her book had me thinking “I’ve never had an original thought in my life” nearly every essay. This is an incredibly powerful memoir. The fact that it is so beautifully written feels like an added bonus.
When I think of what makes me one of the walking wounded, my 3 childhood concussions have never made the list. This book made me realize they probably should, but even so, Annie’s writing is applicable to those with a wide array of health issues. Annie deals with a lot of themes here, all of them as integrated as in an identity. Although I of course don’t relate to everything, I feel very seen and understood by this incredibly human book.
