Summary:
Everyone who cherishes the gift of language will cherish this exquisitely written love story that combines science, inspiration, wisdom, and heart. Diane Ackerman's husband Paul West, a gifted wordsmith and intellectual, was afflicted with aphasia after a stroke. When standard therapies failed, Diane harnessed their deep knowledge of each other and her understanding of the brain and language to guide Paul back to the world of words.
