Original title: Putain de silence "On a July morning ten years ago, Philippe Vigand, a young, vigorous, handsome publishing executive, was walking to work when he heard a "gigantic explosion."Stragely, nobody else seemed to have heard it...for the simple reason that it was in his head.For two months he lay in a coma.When he awoke, he was completely paralyzed, but his mind was intact.He was suffering from locked-in syndrome.After months of hospital care, Philippe was brought home when an infrared camera enabled him to "speak" and "write" by blinking his eyes.Written in two parts, the first by Philippe using the magic camera, the second by his wife, Stephane, this moving work traces the evolution of the illness and their relationship and shows how love and devotion can overcome almost anything."
