Las anécdotas del Dr. Estivill (Dr. Estivill’s anecdotes), non-fiction
The idea for this book had been lodged in my head for a long time. Conducting a Sleep Clinic is quite an adventure, and I wanted to tell about it. It has been 25 years now since I started to pursue the very rewarding goal of curing people’s sleep troubles … During this time, I had nearly 35.000 consultations – consultations that have led to an amazing amount of complicity. Many have become a part of our “sleep family”. Yet, in every family things happen, and these things usually carry anecdotes and funny situations … A book was asking to be written: a book about the people who do not sleep, who are too sleepy, and those who will not let others sleep. So here you have the result: a book full of peculiar “truths” …
This autobiographic account of the internationally well-known specialist in sleep medicine is a collection of entertaining stories about sleeplessness, narcolepsy, sleepwalking, snoring and much more, written with passion, irony and humour. With the permission of his many patients, Eduard Estivill helps us to learn more about sleep and to see certain things from another perspective.
