This case is included in the book The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales by the same author.

I read it after it was recommended by Alastair Reynolds in the afterword of one of his fictional stories, and I very much enjoyed it. I also definitely see some of its influence in Reynolds's work.


Interesting to compare this with the tik-tok mental illness influencer thing, seems like a slower analog equivalent.
