Dusty Chalk Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 I was just coming in here to post that. He helped my sisters a lot during my mother's declining final months and years. There's also this beautiful article which he wrote himself:http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/02/19/opinion/oliver-sacks-on-learning-he-has-terminal-cancer.html?_r=0&referrer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aura Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 RIP Wes. Probably the biggest horror influence for me early on. Without his later work I would not have learned to appreciate film, let alone horror, as early as I did. Dude sure knew what he was doing.

Also loved Awakenings, of course, and enjoyed The Man Who Mistook His Wife l For a Hat, and Musicophilia. Catching up late with this but for those who enjoyed his work I'd highly recommend checking out the last interview that he did for Radiolab. http://www.radiolab.org/story/remembering-oliver-sacks/Or if you want to experience like I first did have a listen to this - http://www.radiolab.org/story/radiolab-live-telltale-hearts-featuring-oliver-sacks/ - which includes not only the interview but related stories that Radiolab assembled for a live performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
