How does autistic trauma really feel, and how can you find your way through it to a warmer, brighter place?Written by best-selling author Charlotte Amelia Poe this is a poignant and whimsical exploration of the true autistic experience. Chapter-by-chapter, Poe delicately peels back the layers of what it is to be young and autistic in the modern world, touching on trauma, grief, mortality, love and everything in between.Charming, thought-provoking and often very funny, this book doesn't offer solutions - it walks next to you, like a friend, through times both dark and light. It reminds you every step that you're not alone.

"my brain is wired in a way that lends itself to concepts and ideas that follow strange alleyways to things that cause a vast array of spirals." Was there ever a sentence that captured the wonders of a neurodivergent brain better?Poe's personal account, sometimes poem, sometimes diary, sometimes stream of consciousness, is a literary artwork allowing the reader an insight into an autistic brain. Though just one, as the author is at pains to point out. Poe wanted to create something beautiful and despite their own self-disbelief they have done it.
