If I am not myself, then who am I?
Jane Lapotaire is one of the lucky ones. Many people do not survive, let alone live intelligently and well again once they have suffered cerebral haemorrhage. In the long haul back to life - "nearly dying was the easy bit" - there were some hard lessons to be learned - a few friendships became casualties; family relationships had to be redefined; and her work as an actress took a severe battering. But she has survived and now believes it herself when people say how lucky she is.
This is a very moving, darkly funny honest book about what happens when the "you" you've known all your life is no longer quite the same.
