Jeanette Purkis' autobiography

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

Haven't posted for ages. Sorry if you already know about this. I am currently reading "Finding a different kind of normal" by Jeanette Purkis who has Aspergers and wrote an autobiography about her incredable childhood and especially, teenage life. I just can't stop reading.....it's just amazing how she survived. I would say it is not a "tipical" Aspie story. If you want to get more information about the book, go on

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/womanshour/04/2006_07_thu.shtml This link should take you to the programm which was on February 16th on woman's hour: Women and autism.

 

Good luck

Maria

Thanks for the recommendation, Maria.

 

I heard the programme last week and this woman's life story sounds intriguing. I'm definitely tempted to buy the book.
