In this book, Claire Sylvia recounts her extraordinary experience after undergoing a heart and lung transplant in 1988. Shortly after the operation, she began to experience inexplicable changes in her personality, from new culinary tastes to shifts in personal preferences, leading her to believe she had inherited part of the essence of her donor, an 18-year-old motorcyclist. Written in collaboration with William Novak, this book is a moving testimony about human connection and the mystery of identity after a transplant. The work explores deep themes regarding cellular memory and the experience of living with another person's organ, offering a unique perspective on life, death, and survival.
