"Still Me" by Christopher Reeve.

I'm a big Superman fan, so naturally Reeve and of course his tragic accidnet was of great interest to me. But this autobigoraphy isn't about the DC Comics character; it gives you a window into the mind of one of teh great symbols of hope and perserverance of our time. To read of Reeve's struggles and reflections of the life he had before is quite moving, especially when he gets into the specifics of how the accident affects his everyday life. His optimistic outlook on his situation and determination to walk again is indeed heartbreaking now that he has passed, but I recommend it to anyone. It really makes you stop and appreciate the little things in life to many of us take for granted.
