Robert K. Bosscha’s “Leaving La-La Land: Escape to Reality” Joins ReadersMagnet’s Book Display Lineup for London Book Fair 2026
A gripping memoir of survival, disorientation, and rediscovery, “Leaving La-La Land: Escape to Reality” takes readers deep inside one man’s altered reality. It speaks to memoir lovers, medical nonfiction readers, and anyone drawn to extraordinary human resilience. This is a book for those curious about the mind—and moved by stories of fighting back.
“I invite others to join me on a journey where the brain shuts down, jumps into self-preservation mode, and creates alternate realities, which force the mind to work in survival mode. My survival and recovery from encephalopathy is a story of the power of the brain and the strength of the human soul.”
“Leaving La-La Land: Escape to Reality” by Robert K. Bosscha will be showcased at the London Book Fair 2026 as part of self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet’s book display. The book trade fair will take place on March 10-12, 2026, at Olympia, London, UK. Fairgoers can find ReadersMagnet’s exhibit at stand 6A90.
Visitors to the London Book Fair 2026 are invited to explore “Leaving La-La Land,” a memoir that brings an unforgettable voice to the fair’s diverse roster of internationally presented works. Known for being both haunting and illuminating, the book recounts Bosscha’s sudden medical collapse and his fight against encephalopathy, a rare and life-altering brain condition, that reshaped every facet of his existence.
“Leaving La-La Land” follows his three-month hospital journey, defined by confusion, dreamlike distortions, and the painstaking struggle to reclaim basic physical and cognitive abilities. Bosscha lives in two overlapping worlds: the clinical reality monitored by medical staff, and the vivid dreamscapes woven by his injured mind.
From imagined Muay Thai tournaments to alternate family lives in distant countries, the author’s internal odysseys help him piece together the fragments of a life slipping out of reach. These dreams—paired with meticulous hospital notes—reveal an extraordinary inner battle, offering a rare window into the mind at its most vulnerable and most inventive.
As Bosscha slowly emerges from encephalopathy, he regains a measure of independence, though forever transformed. His memoir stands as a testament to resilience, clarity forged through chaos, and the fierce determination to reclaim one’s sense of self—resonating with readers seeking stories of truth, survival, and hard-won hope.
“Leaving La-La Land: Escape to Reality” by Robert K. Bosscha is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
