Black water rafting The descriptions of oncoming seizures are very well done Details of the time period are very interesting as is the meeting with Edward Lear Childrens Books I was caught up with this narrative which effortlessly channels a 19th century voice to tell the story of a boy with epilepsy in a time when there were no drug treatments As far as I can tell the descriptions of the epileptic seizures are pretty accurate my late wife was an epileptic so I have some experience but of course only from the outside The ending seemed rather rushed however and the fortuitous appearance of epileptic writer artist and thus role model Edward Lear strained belief in coincidence Childrens Books Oh the joys of reading wherein so much is learned from one small book Well written and insightful the author provides vivid descriptions of Victorian England and a time when epilepsy was perceived as an affliction of the demonically possessed and of someone quite batty in the head and insane This is the story of Albert who lived with his mother who loved him and tried her best to protect him. Black water zenekar When his mother dies Albert must find his way in the world and somehow make a living When an unexpected meeting occurs Albert gains knowledge he craves Albert s life is forever changed by the author and artist Edward Lear. Black water book Prior to reading this book I never heard of Edward Lear who was severely affected by epilepsy Despite incredible odds Lear became a famous landscape painter and an author of limericks.
