kareila: a lady in glasses holding a stack of books (books)
[personal profile] kareila
Extremely relatable memoir of a woman who was diagnosed with autism in her early forties. There's a bit of a language remove due to having been translated from Swedish, but her questions and observations are universal, I think. And she brings in perspectives from several others, including some famous women of history who are newly suspected of having been autistic. Although I dislike any school of thought that promotes a rigid gender binary, I do appreciate a wider variety of experiences being brought to light than the ones that are stereotypically understood to indicate autism.
