Synopsis: In an insightful, deeply human story reminiscent of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, Daniel Isn't Talking, and The Reason I Jump, New York Times bestselling author and neuroscientiest Lisa Genova offers a unique perspective in fiction - the extraordinary voice of Anthony, a nonverbal boy with autism. Anthony reveals a neurologically plausible peek inside the of autism, why he hates pronouns, why he loves swinging and the number three, how he experiences routine, joy, and love. And it is the voice of this voiceless boy that guides two women in this powerfully unforgettable story to discover the universal story truths that connect us all. Review: Lisa Genova just doesn't disappoint. This wasn't my favorite of her books that I've read this far, but it was still excellent reading.
