A journal which happens to be a social history of the 1950s in Huntingdon, Quebec. What makes this especially interesting is that it is written by a dental surgeon who has had a stroke, and who types his "letters" with one finger.

From the Back Cover

Journal of a Stroke Victim. "What a mysterious world, that of the stroke victim. We can only try to imagine it.... This is a compelling look into the private whims, furies and fantasies of a man imprisoned, with full cerebral function, in a body that has become unmanageable." (From the Introduction) He was encouraged by his brother O.E., a surgeon, to keep a journal, which took the form of letters to his brother Rom. Two decades after Euclide's death, Margaret, wife of Rom's son Renaud, became intrigued by the tattered onionskin sheets. With considerable help from her husband, Renaud, she translated the letters into English. Now, nearly two decades later, she has annotated them, to better acquaint readers with the setting of Euclide's story.
