The author provides a personal view of being autistic and in his words, "autism is not a straight line but branches across the web of humanity." More from the author "To the readers out there, this is a story, providing my viewpoint of me, a non-neurotypical person. I have autism, high-functioning autism to be exact (also called neurodivergent; trying to keep track of what to call me; someone on the spectrum). I'm the lead character in that respect, with that perspective. This book is not your typical memoir, but I hope you can stick with it."
