Anya Michaels story of the changes that happen in the sudden discovery that she is sick with a rare neurological disorder, is a moving, emotional, sometimes sad, often human and compassionate novel. It hasn't been edited to a polish and yet it is compelling enough to hold ones attention through the moments when you stumble and have to look again at the text. It is written in odd little blocks of poetry and letters and essays that seem as if each one could stand alone, so that at times I just let...more

“Excuse Me, My Brains Have Stepped Out” is an epistolary novel told through the letters of a woman named Anya to her beloved father. At the very beginning, Anya is diagnosed with a very rare brain condition that requires surgery and a lengthy recovery.
Her diagnosis sends Anya into a path of self-discovery and reflection on both herself and the people and world that surround her, and in each of her letters she tackles a different theme, from the strength of friendship to materialism to frenemies...more

Based on the blurb above I was expecting the novel to show me Anya going from a normal, active, social woman to one who is isolated and forgotten once her medical condition becomes public knowledge. Instead I am told about the people in Anya’s life who either stick by her or take off during her illness.

I’m not a huge fan of epistolary novels. I always feel we aren’t give the whole picture when it is formatted as a letter. Each of Anya’s letters are to her father, a man who has not been in her life for some time. She frequently mentions her eagerness to see him face to face again and her sadness over not having him more involved in her life. It is clear she loves and respects her father and feels he is the ideal person to share her thoughts with.

The people Anya talks about in her letters are the extreme end of the spectrum personalities. The horrible people who lie and cheat, abuse their children but pretend everything in their life is sunshine and roses, who abuse her generosity and her belief that people are “good”. She also speaks of those few and far between wonderful examples of mankind, the selfless, and helpful, the caring and compassionate. Mixed in between these descriptions we get glimmers of Anya’s life and what she is enduring. She goes through debilitating lumbar punctures as a way to treat her illness and then eventually goes through brain surgery as a way to improve her health and to limit and mitigate the symptoms.

Her observations of these people and the world around her are shrewdly accurate and it makes you consider your own life and how you interact with people. While I didn’t like the style the book was written and would have preferred a more standard storytelling format, it was still an interesting read and the ending made me cry a little.

This is a different sort of book than you will probably ever read, and if you don't sit down and truly digest it, you are sure to miss some very important messages within the book.

The style in which this story is told is very unique. Anya writes all of her thoughts and ideas during this horrific time in her life as letters to her father. I will not provide spoilers, but it is clear that her father is the man with whom she shared a bond that transcended time and space. These letters are sweet, saucy, acrid, and brutally honest.

Poor Anya is facing a rare illness about which most know nothing. She makes some observations about the world in a way that few of us will contemplate saying or thinking. It seemed so callous and caustic, but as I continued to read, I realized that this author allowed her character to make observations about the world that one never voices. Her character continues to point out how her brain issue is nothing compared to a world where people refuse to use their brains in everyday life. I began to realize just how naive and trusting I am.

I was glad that profanity was nonexistent (from what I remember), and no sex acts were detailed. It is clear that Anya has a religious background, but I cannot say that she is truly a follower of Christ. Even at the end. But I will say that Anya gets the chance to "live like she was dying." If only we would all be brave enough to live every day like this!

I was glad the book was short because as insightful as it is, I found my mind wandering now and then just because the letters were so poignant. I would have loved to get more than just Anya's perspective in the book. But I guess that Anya was essentially deserted by everyone, so having another perspective would have been challenging. But I think it could have made te story a bit more interesting.

I cannot imagine having to go through a physical issue like this, and by reading this book, I got a glimpse into the lives and minds of those with a debilitating disease. If you would like something deep and different, use your brains and get this book!

I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not finacially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.(less)

What an interesting book, and although the cover does not reveal anything about the serious topic in this book, it is an eye opener and insight story into the life of the main personality Anya Michaels. She has a brain condition, which will put her into a comatic state at one point in her life.

This was a wonderfully surprising book. At first glance, the premise—It Girl abruptly finds her charmed world turned upside down—seems to tread familiar, albeit fun, territory. But Pandora Poikilos’ clever narrative device holds together beautifully, like a Greek tragedy, in which Anya Mitchell is a fabulous, pixilated, one-of-a-kind creation, who doesn’t say one boring thing in the entire novel. This is a story about digression; like a mind at work, a mind in the consideration of the past, it d...more

You want so badly to be absorbed into a story so raw and so powerful that you're literally just sucked into the tightest spaces between the words. "Excuse Me, My Brains Have Stepped Out" by Pandora Poikilos did that for me. Who knew that a title so breezy and humor-laden would suck me in so aggressively and unrelentingly? And to think I almost didn't read it. As a dedicated Oliver Sacks fan and someone who has a keen interest in research on (and experiences with) neurological disorders, this book unexpectedly floated into my GoodReads search recommendations. The book's description and storyline piqued my interest, but I didn't expect to start and finish it on the same day GoodReads introduced it to me. I figured I'd probably like Anya Michaels, the main character, but I didn't realize how much she'd come to mean to me.

Right away, the book plunges you right into the wrenching core of Anya's sudden diagnosis of intracranial hypertension. Such is the start of the total upheaval of everything meaningful and significant in Anya's life, and we are whisked through the terror - and, ultimately, the hope - of losing or being terrified of losing everything that has ever mattered: health, family, love, stability, a future of promise and intent. The journey winds its way through a series of writings to Anya's father, a somewhat-mystery-clad figure whose own significance is slowly revealed through a building of hints, loving disclosures, and (at the end) the ultimate revelation. Because our lens into Anya's life is so deeply rooted, we forego cheap thrills and one-dimensional storylines and instead soar headlong through the details of love, heartbreak, fear, desolation, and, ultimately, overcoming life's diversities through love and the strength of one's character. The author threads these moments of experience into a cloth of realism and gripping rawness without releasing the hope that pervades and heals, and without sacrificing an appreciation for the wit and humor that sears Anya into flesh and makes her all the more real.(less)

When faced with a life-altering event, we all change our view of the world as we turn in our rose-colored glasses for the stark, harsh perspective seen through the clear lenses of reality. In "Excuse Me, My Brains Have Stepped Out" Anya experiences this transformation when she learns she is suffering from a rare disease called Pseudotumor Cerebri.

But the protagonist of Pandora Poikilos’ novel Excuse Me, My Brains have stepped out, having just been diagnosed with a neurological disease, starts writing a diary in the form of letters to her absent father.

Anya is living a normal life, that is until she finds out she has a rare neurological disorder, that affects not only her vision but her life, with painful spinal taps, and the critisism she recieves from those around her.

I have mixed feelings about this book. Overall, I liked it, but it wasn't really what I was expecting from the blurb, so there was constantly a disconnect there. We don't meet Anya until after her diagnosis, and the whole story is told in a series of letters about her past written to her father. Each of these vignettes focus on a different subject, friendship, trust, embracing life. This could have been a negative depressing book, but it was upbeat and positive for the most part.

This, together with information given me in a blog interview with the author (use the link if you wish to read it: http://stuartaken.blogspot.com/2011/0... ), leads me to believe it's a fictionalised account of real events. It's not uncommon, of course, for writers to present their life stories as fiction and, as often as not, it's done to protect those they grew up with. All that said, this novel reads like a life story.
It's presented largely as a series of letters to the narrator's father. These include hints at a past we never fully learn but which clearly contains distressing events. The letters also include passages of opinion on various aspects of humanity, relationships and life in general. It's an interesting device and, for the most part, works well in the context of the book. There were times, however, when I found the authorial voice a little intrusive and sometimes tiresome.
There are editing deficiencies in the text, which is unfortunately peppered with instances of tense change and other grammatical errors. This should have rendered the book unreadable for me, since I find such presentation very irritating, believing that writers should learn the rules before going on to break them. It's testament to the quality of the content that the faults didn't stop me reading to the end.
The emotional journey we take with the narrator is profound, disturbing, difficult and, uplifting. This isn't a story full of action; there's no apparent sequence of events and no plot. This is an exposition of the very significant barriers and obstructions to normal life faced by an individual suffering from Intracranial Hypertension; a rare brain condition. Had the author merely set out what had happened to Anya, the subject of the story, it would've probably resulted in a turgid text. But her presentation of events through intimate and touching letters to Anya's father, in spite of occasional passages where she tells him things he already knows, renders the tale into a moving and easily digested account.
Anya complains about those who say they 'understand' her situation, suggesting that such understanding can be achieved only through similar suffering. I 'understand' her view on that topic. But feel I have some, albeit small, understanding of aspects of her condition and her fight to achieve normality. Having suffered ME/CFS for eight years (now recovered), I know how limiting certain conditions can be and I commend her efforts, courage and sheer determination in completing what must have been a very demanding undertaking.
This is a book that some will find difficult, some won't finish, but which cannot fail to move those who take the trouble to accompany Anya on her journey, against seemingly impossible odds, toward a destination that will leave them in a better place than they started. Uplifting and inspiring.

When I originally downloaded this book I thought I was going to get this really heart-wrenching story about a woman dealing with her brain disease. Instead, I got a woman giving her condescending thoughts to the world.

Really,I didn't have THAT much of a problem with it at first. Anya is diagnosed with a brain disease. So, she starts writing letters to her dad about all the things she can't stand about the world.

Now, some of them are perfectly valid. The boyfriend who cheats on you or the significant other who abuses you or how because you have a incurable disease, you're treated different including losing your job over and over, being betrayed by "friends" and having people spread misconceptions about you. There's even one point where she mentions that she has a hard time showing sympathy for people who complain about headaches because of the excrutiating pain she suffers from her brain condition (something I really related to because I constantly suffer from severe, crippling migraines. I can't stand when people complain of their pansy headaches and THEN refuse to even take any medicine.)

But then she complains about things that really just seem like her, well, complaining and not imparting any sort of words of wisdom on anyone. Like one story is about how people should be controlling their kids in public. Honestly? You don't know the situation or what's happen and she basically takes on this idea that there should be no kids at all in public places. She also talks about the person who sits there and tells you about all this advice they have for you and how you could be doing things better, which I think is just an ironic thing to talk about because, for all intents and purposes, that's exactly what's going on in this book.

The other HUGE thing that annoyed me was that the big surprise for this book was that the father that Anya was writing to the whole book was not alive. He had died when she was three. Well, guess what? I wasn't surprised. I had figured it out in about the second letter that she had written to her dad and the more she wrote, the more painfully obvious it became that he was no longer living.

The only thing that kind of surprised me was that, in the end, Anya died but I came to dislike her so much that I didn't really care. And the other thing is that I don't really know what caused her death. Did she die of old age, her disease, what? When I find out she's dead I kind of don't care and I have no emotional response to it.

The other thing I have a huge problem with is that Anya tells us that she lost her father when she was three. Three! I don't know, maybe it's just me, but I remember very little from when I was three years old. I have a hard time believing that she had this crazy strong relationship with her father that she only knew for three years!

Overall, I was not impressed. I thought I was going to see a woman dealing with her disease, dealing with how her life was changing around her. Instead I got a woman bitching about all the things in life that she didn't like.(less)
