Episode 21. Stroke with Sebastian Groes. Author - Right in the Head

In this episode, Sebastian Groes joins me to discuss his experience of stroke as narrated in his memoir titled Right in the Head. He explores the physical deficits, the emotional turmoil that accompanied his stroke, and the impact it had on his family, and on return to work.

Bas is Professor of English Literature at the University of Wolverhampton, where he leads a Computational Literary Studies project on inclusivity and diversity. This is an Arts and Humanities Research Council-funded projected titled Novel Perceptions: towards an inclusive canon.

At Wolverhampton, he is also Director of the Centre for Transnational and Transcultural Research and works with 6 PhD students. His research often features on the BBC: he has written, for instance, about the need to rethink literary genre, fake news during the Corona crisis, and gendered responses to the pandemic.

Bas has published over ten academic books and edits a series on contemporary fiction for Bloomsbury Academic, Contemporary Critical Perspectives. He is fascinated by the ways in which human behaviour, memory and thinking are changing in the twenty-first century.

He leads The Memory Network, edited the ground-breaking book Memory in the Twenty-First Century and has written on information overload.
