Description
Naoki Higashida's poignant and thought-provoking memoir offers a unique insight into life with autism. In concise and engaging pieces, he shares his thoughts and feelings on a range of topics, from everyday experiences to the complexities of social relationships. With an aim to foster a better understanding of autism and to encourage those with disabilities to be seen as people, not as problems, Higashida's observations are both moving and practical. A dreamlike short story is included in this edition, adding to the book's emotional resonance.
