Mondays Are Red

'Mondays are red. Sadness has an empty blue shell. And music can taste of anything from banana puree to bat's pee. That's what I need to explain, starting with the day it all began, the day I woke up in a hospital bed with a kaleidoscope in my head...' Join Luke in his odyssey to regain his health after a devasting bout of Meningitis, and to understand and accept its mysterious legacy - synesthesia. As the author writes: 'No two people experience their synaesthesia in exactly the same way. For some it simply means that when they think of a day of the week, they are bombarded with sensations of a particular colour...For others, life is a kaleidoscope of mixed sensations...people with synesthesia can open up the endless world of human imagination and that, I think is the most amazing world of all.'
