I’m writing about the two books that I read from this author: “Voyage en Autistan” and “Je suis à l’Est”
The author, Joseph Schovanec, is famous in atypicals world, Asperger’s one: he wrote several books, had done interviews to share his life experience of Asperger / HPI. He helps others: by showing that with his Asperger’s particularities, he was able to be integrated into the neurotypics’ world while being himself.
I will make a small summary of the 2 books and write my opinion 😜
–First of all, “Voyage en Autistan”
This is a short story of his travels around the world mostly in the Middle East countries that he especially likes.
He also explains how he lives and feels his travels, with his atypical’s eyes😉.
–And then “Je suis à l’Est”
This is more a biography. He is trying to explain what an autistic’s life is, with a lot of humor and travel images (it’s a real passion for him I think, maybe one of his restricted interests?). It is divided into small chapters with each topic (work, friendship, childhood ….).
I preferred “Je suis à l’Est” because I could understand more things. Joseph Schovanec has a very particular way of writing: he has a very rich vocabulary; complex words and you have to catch his ideas … You have to be in a great shape to read it (not after a very big day 🤪). But his books are really interesting: I loved reading them. Once you enter in his universe “Autistan”, you can read them easily without noticing time!
Through his stories, his fun facts, he helps us to understand better what our children and spouses/husbands can live!
I really recommend them!! Don’t hesitate to read them 😉 (a little surprise soon on this topic … Watch the blog!)
If you have readings to advise me, don’t hesitate to give me the titles in comments for future articles.
1 … 2 … 3 … Let’s Share😊😊😊😊!!!!
