The Man Who Lost His Language by Sheila Hale
When the Renaissance historian Sir John Hale suffered a stroke that deprived him of speech, his wife Shelia took it upon herself to find out how he might be brought back to normal as far as possible. This is her story, but also an exploration of what aphasia can tell us about language.
Sheila Hale is a distinguished travel writer and journalist and author of guides to Florence and Tuscany, Venice and Verona. She has written for a number of American and British newspapers and magazines including The New York Times, the Observer, the Times Literary Supplement, and the London Review of Books.
