Inhaltsangabe:
"Writing with a poignant honesty about her childhood in Sweden, Gunilla Gerland knew from an early age that she was different. Always feeling alone and driven by inner compulsions, she did not fit in with other children or her own family. Only after she reached adulthood was she diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism. This touching account of a troubled childhood offers insights into a condition that has not been widely recognized, and serves as an invaluable resource to families and professionals striving to understand autistic people in their care. "
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Gunilla Gerland was born with Asperger's Syndrome, which was not diagnosed until she was an adult. As a child she felt lost, isolated and adrift in a hostile and strange world where she was different to everyone else. After her parents' marriage broke up and her elder sister moved away she drifted into using drugs. Through the help of a psychotherapist she came to terms with her condition and came to tell her own story.
