Labeled deaf, retarded, disturbed and insane, Donna Williams lived in a world of her own. Alternating between rigid hostility and extroversion, she waged what she termed her "war against the world." She existed in a dreamlike state, parroting the voices of those around her in the hope that they would leave her alone. Few people understood her, least of all Donna helself. It was not until the age of twenty-five that Donna discovered the word- autism- that would at last give her the opportunity to understand herself and begin to build a bridge to join the world as most know it. "Nobody Nowhere, Donna Williams' extraordinary autobiography, is her heroic attempt to come to terms with autism. This eloquent memoir reveals a fierce intelligence, great creativity and much humour. It will shatter many myths and misconceptions. The poetic sensibility and extraordinary insights of "Nobody Nowhere make it inspiring reading for everyone. "From the Trade Paperback edition.… (mehr)

Wow. Definitely recommended reading for therapists and teachers. Maybe not recommended so much for loving parents, because Donna Williams credits her mother's bad parenting for giving her (Donna) the strength to develop her own identity in the world. In that way it reminds me of [b:Look Me in the Eye: My Life with Asperger's|454856|Look Me in the Eye My Life with Asperger's|John Elder Robison|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1189907494s/454856.jpg|2119898], written by John Elder Robison and influenced by his brother, Augusten Burroughs. Heartwrenching, heartwarming, and educational. ( )
This book is a fascinating, courageous and true story by a young woman about her childhood. Donna Williams has autism and yet has managed to develop into a perceptive and thoughtful adult who has the ability to look at her own reactions and write about them in a manner that is accurate and detached and, at the same time, intensely personal and full of feeling.

Ikkunaton huone, seuranasi varjot vain, ne eivät sinua unohda, ne vievät sinut. Et tunne tunteitasi, älä kysy, älä murru, aloita jälleen, aloita jälleen alusta.
Lasin alta, maailmastasi, näet kaukana maailman kukaan ei pääse tykösi, siihen uskot. Mutta tuuli tuulee kylmänä, se osuu sisimpääsi, minne et luullut maailman yltävän, ja nyt on liian myöhä.
Juokse, juokse voimasi loppuun, osaatkohan seisahtaa? Ihmiset ohittavat sinut, hyvästelet heidät. Saat hymyn, olethan lapsi, lapsen kaltainen, saavuttamaton, mutta silmäsi itkevät nyt.
Kuuntele siis, älä kysy tietäviltä. Älä ajattele kahdesti, kuuntele vain, kuuntele, juokse kätköön, mielesi siimekseen, yksinäsi, niin kuin ei kukaan, ei missään.

Vaikka vastassa olisikin väistelyä ja etäisyyttä, se ei ole samaa kuin välinpitämättömyys.
