Více o knize
The narrative centers on Lionel, Caroline's older brother, who navigated life with autism during a time when understanding and support were virtually nonexistent. Born in the 1950s, Lionel's extraordinary abilities, such as perfect pitch and quick mental calculations, contrasted sharply with societal attitudes towards autistic individuals. Caroline's account explores Lionel's life journey, highlighting the progress in autism awareness over the decades while also addressing ongoing disparities in care and support for neurodivergent individuals, especially in end-of-life scenarios.
