It’s a wildly discursive (perhaps too much for some tastes) though hugely entertaining book, just over 220 generously printed pages: I have read it twice but feel I have just skimmed the surface. Now the scalpel, so to speak, has changed hands and Marsh, who has retired, finds himself on the receiving end after a cancer diagnosis.īut that is only the jumping-off point for this remarkable book: it is admittedly a patchwork covering a rich tapestry of topics from woodworking, trekking in the Himalayas, the etchings of the 16th-century German artist Albrecht Durer, the Covid lockdown, the working habits of Ukrainian snipers, roof scammers who plague elderly homeowners, the bewildering structure of the brain, sleep and the nature of dreams, the joys of pottery, hospital decorations, quantum physics, the actions of an MRI scanner. His earlier book Do No Harm, an enthralling and very frank account of his storied career in neurosurgery around the world, was an international bestseller. He is not short of vanity, as he admits, and after all, you have to be pretty ballsy to be prepared to cut people’s heads open for a living, to quite literally hold someone’s life in your hands. Brain surgeon Henry Marsh is a rock star of medicine, a description which will not I imagine dismay him.

He set out on an Ophiuchus moon-the moon transiting this constellation of healing/ transformation/ resurrection-on its way to our Galactic Center. It was at this time that the "Son of Liberty," Paul Revere, made his famous ride. This is the star named Altair.Ģ47 years ago, the sun and Pluto were in this near exact arrangement in the sky.connected to these same stars in this square relationship. The sun is separating from a catalytic square with Pluto, which is currently aligned to the alpha star of Aquila, the eagle constellation.

I have enjoyed the novel, but I think that it had a lot of faults of the typical debut - I have now read the other instalments of the series and there are better ones out there, my favourite being Scaredy Cat (this was one that really scared me and it's not an easy feat for a pop-book!).
