Everyday Heaven Journeys Beyond the Stereotypes of Autism

"With warmth and honesty, Donna Williams recounts her experiences of being in and out of relationships. Following on from her previous account of coming to terms with being diagnosed with autism aged twenty-five, in this book she describes coming to terms with her sexuality. There is the adoring Ian, who accompanies Donna through the trials of revisiting strained family relationships, speaking at her first conferences and making her first TV appearances, Mick who doesn't want a relationship, the unsympathetic Shelley and Chris, her dream man. This tale of intimate relationships and their associated feelings of security, insecurity, isolation, desire and love will strike a chord not only with autistic readers but with all those who have experienced the ups and downs of such relationships."Williams, Donna is the author of 'Everyday Heaven Journeys Beyond the Stereotypes of Autism', published 2004 under ISBN 9781843102113 and ISBN 1843102110.
