Dr. Vikram Loses His Mind

Earworms

De: Arvind Ethan David

Narrado por: Sanjeev Bhaskar, Ming-Na Wen, Kirsty Yates, Allison Caviness

It is a simple question that is as profound as any we can ask: “Who am I?” Dr. Vikram Anthony is that rare person who believes the answer is relatively simple. I am my work; I am my skill; I am my mind.

It is only when the noted surgeon faces his own mortality that the answer gets more complex. And the opportunity for a new life–a decidedly different life–opens a world of possibilities he’d never imagined.

But perhaps he doesn’t know his own mind as well as he thinks he does....

Dr. Vikram Loses His Mind is written by Arvind Ethan David and stars Sanjeev Bhaskar as Dr. Vikram Anthony and Ming-Na Wen as Dr. Elaine Greenfield.

Earworms is a series of short speculative-fiction dramas–tales of what might have been...or might yet be...or perhaps in fact are, if only you were paying attention...if only you were listening.

Not a bad short story.

The story was entertaining although not extremely original in the majority of its plot, but it did take a nice little twist there at the end. I did laugh out loud when they attributed “advancements” in healthcare in the story to Universal Healthcare. Anybody that thinks UH will increase research, knowledge and care simply hasn’t done the real math (not Bernie Sanders math) nor have they “fully” studied other existing examples of UH.

The Performances Make The Story.

Dr. Vikram looses his mind is like a lost episode of The Twilight Zone. With all the new technology that is becoming available and easily accessible, one has to make choices in who or what to believe. Are the choices we make really beneficial or not. What is worth saving and what should one just let go?

A Good Start

This was enjoyable. I like the format of an idea too chew on. I look forward to the next installment.

Entertaining

Short yet interesting. A good story that gives you something to ponder and analyze. Good interpretation from the author and the actors.

Too Short

Like all good things, there just never seems to be enough. The story is well written and the acting was great. I really enjoyed this one.

Amazing Plot Twist

Great story. I would have loved the romantic interest to be developed as the motivation for tricking him but overall it was a good story and the dramatization was good, too.

Nice short w/ an intriguing twist at the end

I started this not expecting much for a 45min story, but was hooked almost immediately. Great narrators and an interesting story. Enjoyable if you try not to peek under the hood too much to understand the motivations of why things unfold as they do.

Captivating and different

Overall well done. Worth a listen if you have a couple of hours. That’s all!

Great narration, unexpected

Very unexpected with a twist at the end. Love Sanjeev’s voice and his work. Si-fi … or rather a Popular Science kind of listen. I like the short stories - good to take on a walk

Outstanding turn if events

I enjoyed the philosophical inplications of the story in this book. It is nice to hear again the voice of Agent May (Ming Na Wen) of Agents of Shield tv show.
