Brain Damage: like waking up in the Twilight Zone.

Another sketch for my Self-Identity/Mind-Brain class. I'm reading about L. Zasetsky. He was drafted into the Russian army during WWII. He gained severe brain damage from a piece of shrapnel lodged into his head during combat. As a result, he had to re-learn many things, though some of his most human faculties (imagination, self-awareness, longing for meaning) were left entirely intact. I think this is what drove him to do everything he could to make himself meaningful.

The book is The Man with a Shattered World, put together by A.R. Luria.
