'Remarkable and revelatory, a dazzling achievement. Quietly electrifying' Sunday
Times
On the day his daughter takes her first steps Christian Donlan discovers he has
an incurable neurological disease, multiple sclerosis. As his young daughter
starts to investigate the world around her, he too finds himself exploring a new
landscape - the shifting and bewildering territory of the brain.
Determined to master his new environment, Christian takes us on a fascinating

anxieties of parenthood, and the ultimate realisation of what, after everything
you take for granted has been stripped away from you, is truly important in
life.
