Overview

This is not a book about a stroke. It is about what happens afterwards. When words begin to slip away. When the body no longer obeys. When certainty collapses overnight and life becomes rehabilitation, waiting rooms, exercises, fear, irony and survival. Architect, bartender, traveller, restless observer of humanity, Sergio Cenedese suddenly finds himself forced to rebuild not only his body, but his entire identity. What follows is not a medical diary, nor a motivational manual. It is a crooked, raw and often darkly funny journey through hospitals, memories, Brazil, friendship, love, humiliation and stubborn resistance. Written in short flashes of thought, sarcasm and fragile lucidity, Tilt! Right Tingling, Half Reborn moves between the grey streets of Alessandria and the warmth of Natal, between architectural drawings from 1985 and the brutal reality of neurological rehabilitation. At the centre of it all remains one simple refusal: not to disappear. Part memoir, part survival log, part personal odyssey, this is the first volume of A Crooked Diary.
