Reception
The Chicago Tribune reviewed The River of Consciousness, Praising Sacks' "ability to braid wide reading".[2] In a review for the Wall Street JournalLaura J. Snyder notes that the volume "reminds us, in losing Sacks we lost a gifted and generous storyteller.”[3] In a review published by The Guardian the physician Gavin Francis writes: For those thousands of correspondents, The River of Consciousness will feel like a reprieve – we get to spend time again with Sacks the botanist, the historian of science, the marine biologist and, of course, the neurologist.
