Drama Queen By Sara Gibbs, Neurotribes By Steve Silberman, Autism By Jessie Hewitson 3 Books Collection

Drama
'It has taken me several years of exploration, but I am at a place now where I see autism as neither an affliction nor a superpower. It's just the blueprint for who I am. There is no cure, but that's absolutely fine by me. To cure me of my autism would be to cure me of myself.'


What is autism? A lifelong disability, or a naturally occurring form of cognitive difference akin to certain forms of genius? In truth, it is all of these things and more—and the future of our society depends on our understanding it. Wired reporter Steve Silberman unearths the secret history of autism.


'A wise SatNav for what is often a bewildering, or even scary, zone of parenting. The book offers real-world, road-tested, child-first and family-friendly advice; while also highlighting the twin truths that autism is not a tragedy, and that adaptation and acceptance are not resignation' David Mitchell, bestselling author and co-translator of The Reason I Jump.

About the author

Sara Gibbs is a UK-based comedy writer, author and notorious cat lady. Having been diagnosed as autistic at the age of 30 after a lifetime of being misdiagnosed as just Jewish, it’s now all Sara talks about. That, and the Australian soap opera, Neighbours. Yes, Toadie is still on the show – no, he doesn’t still have a mullet.

Sara’s comedy writing credits include the Daily Mash, Dead Ringers, the News Quiz, the Now Show, Sketchtopia, the Mash Report, Greatest Ever TV Blunders, Greatest Ever Movie Blunders and Have I Got News for You amongst many others.

Her debut book, Drama Queen – One Autistic Woman and a Life of Unhelpful Labels (published by Headline), a memoir about growing up undiagnosed autistic in a new-age community, is out now and available to buy at all good bookstores, as well as e-book and audiobook downloads.

Sara is currently working on several top-secret narrative projects – mainly so she can sound cool and mysterious. She lives in the south east of England with her husband, known by her family as Saint John, and their many, many cats.

You can find Sara on Twitter and Instagram as @Sara_Rose_G. Sara is available to hire for topical, sketch and narrative comedy writing projects. For work enquiries, please contact Rowan Lawton at the Soho Agency.
