  When memory shatters, can a life be rebuilt? 
  As a child, Derry O’Leary was misdiagnosed, slipped into a coma, and survived a brain tumour—waking to a world where his past was missing. What remained were fragments of a life he could no longer fully remember, like pieces of glass scattered across the years. 
  But even shattered glass can catch the light. 
  In his thirties, Derry began the long journey of piecing himself back together: relearning language and relationships, rebuilding identity, and discovering what it means to begin again—not just in survival, but in hope. 
  The World Behind the Door is a raw and intimate memoir of resilience, memory, and renewal. It is a story of unimaginable loss, but also of courage, healing, and the slow return to self. 
  For anyone who has ever felt broken, this memoir is a reminder that the pieces don’t have to fit perfectly to make something whole—and even beautiful. 
  Readers of When Breath Becomes Air, Brain on Fire, and Educated will find resonance and inspiration in these pages.

  My Secret Life Vol 8 Chapter 5

  My Secret Life is an anonymously penned memoir written during a period from the 1840s to the 1880s by a wealthy and sex obsessed English gentleman who refers to himself simply as ‘Walter’. Part confessional, part investigative erotic journalism, it meticulously documents every detail of the author’s prolific sexual encounters, offering us in the process an eye and thigh opening account of life behind closed doors in the Victorian age.
  
  Women, in both mind and body, were the all consuming object of Walter’s interest. From early youth through to old age his quest for erotic discovery and adventure with them was never diminished.
  
  Unlike contemporary 19th century erotic texts, such as The Pearl, whose sole object was to titillate, Walter’s interest in his subjects did not end with the extinguishing of the carnal flame. His hunger to understand the circumstances and minds of the women he encountered is never upstaged by the sex. Their potted life histories, their most intimate desires and acts were shared with him and in turn meticulously recorded by him, written down verbatim while still fresh in his mind.
  
  The resulting poignant record of a lost era and the intimate moments of the women who inhabited it offer us a remarkable insight into the 19th century that cannot be gleaned from any other source.
  
  The complete unabridged text is being released as a fully scored audiofilm (an audio book with accompanying music soundtrack) by film composer Dominic Crawford Collins.
