'This book isn't a memoir. It is a love letter to the phenomenon of autistic hyperfixation.'

Funny, revealing, celebratory and powerful in equal measure, this is a book that will resonate with many, and which should be required reading for anyone who wants to understand autism with more accuracy and empathy.
