NOBODY NOWHERE. - Hardcover
"This is a story of two battles, a battle to keep out 'the world' and a battle to join it."
She inhabits a place of chaos, cacophony, and dancing light--where physical contact is painful and sights and sounds have no meaning. Although labeled, at times, deaf, retarded, or disturbed, Donna Williams is autistic--afflicted by a baffling condition of heightened sensory perception that imprisons the sufferer in a private, almost hallucinatory universe of patterns and colors. Nobody Nowhere is Donna's story in her own words--a haunting, courageous memoir of the titanic struggles she has endured in her quest to merge "my world" with "the world."

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Fair. Labelled abnormal, nut, retard, spastic, mental, disturbed, moron, crazy, weird, wild and insane, Donna Williams lived in a world of her own. Alternating between rigid hostility and oblivious extroversion, she waged a war against the world. At the age of 25, Donna discovered a word, a new label, which brought with it a handful of answers, a chance for forgiveness of both herself and others around her and hope for a sense of belonging: that word was autism. This book provides a personal account of Donna's struggle to come to terms with her condition and to survive the suffering enforced by an unsympathetic, ignorant world. The book shows an insight into the workings of an autistic mind, outlining the incomprehensible pain and tortuous inner turmoil that is a result of the condition. A readable copy of the book which may include some defects such as highlighting and notes. Cover and pages may be creased and show discolouration. Seller Inventory # GOR005912451
