â€œAs sweet and funny and sad and true and heartfelt a memoir as one could find.â€ â€”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 habitsâ€”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)â€”had earned him the label â€œsocial deviant.â€ It was not until he was forty that he was diagnosed with a form of autism called Aspergerâ€™s syndrome. That understanding transformed the way he saw himselfâ€”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. Itâ€™s a strange, sly, indelible accountâ€”sometimes alien yet always deeply human.
