Poe's voice is confident, moving, and often funny, as she reveals to us a very personal account of autism, mental illness, gender, and sexual identity. Charlotte witnesses her own behaviour with a wry humour as she sympathises with those who care for her, yet all the while challenging the neurotypical narratives of autism as something to be 'fixed'. Punctuated by her poetry, this is an exuberant, inspiring, life-changing insight into autism from a viewpoint almost entirely missing from public discussion.
