Pictured are three volumes by eminent neurologist and best-selling author Oliver Sacks, who died yesterday: The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat from The Green Parrot Little Free Library, Musicophilia from The Green Parrot Band House Library, and Oaxaca Journal, from my own library at home.
These volumes demonstrate how far afield this truly extraordinary man’s interests ranged: from the case histories of patients lost in the bizarre, apparently inescapable world of neurological disorders, to an exploration the place music occupies in the brain and how it affects the human condition, to Oaxaca Journal, a diary of a trip he took to Oaxaca, Mexico with the American Fern Society. #greenparrotbar #greenparrotlittlefreelibrary #littlefreelibrary #oliversacks #americanfernsociety #oaxaca #oaxacajournal #tuletree #bookleggerslibrary #bookleggers
