Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers
: En 'Look Me in the Eye', John Elder Robison comparte su experiencia de vida con el síndrome de Asperger en una época en la que este diagnóstico era prácticamente desconocido. Desde su infancia marcada por la incomprensión y el aislamiento social, hasta su etapa como creador de efectos especiales para la banda KISS, Robison narra con humor y honestidad su camino hacia el autodescubrimiento y la aceptación. Este libro ofrece una perspectiva única sobre la neurodiversidad y la búsqueda de conexión en un mundo no siempre preparado para entender las diferencias.

“As sweet and funny and sad and true and heartfelt a memoir as one could find.” —from the foreword by Augusten Burroughs
Ever since he was young, John Robison longed to connect with other people, but by the time he was a teenager, his odd habits—an inclination to blurt out non sequiturs, avoid eye contact, dismantle radios, and dig five-foot holes (and stick his younger brother, Augusten Burroughs, in them)—had earned him the label “social deviant.” It was not until he was forty that he was diagnosed with a form of autism called Asperger’s syndrome. That understanding transformed the way he saw himself—and the world. A born storyteller, Robison has written a moving, darkly funny memoir about a life that has taken him from developing exploding guitars for KISS to building a family of his own. It’s a strange, sly, indelible account—sometimes alien yet always deeply human.
