Autism & Chardonnay 2: Late harvest
The sequel to Autism & Chardonnay by Martin Selner, who works in a residential home with people with autism spectrum disorder
"Autism doesn't make you sexy or a math genius, it's just a cliché from the movies," Martin Selner explained in his first book Autism & Chardonnay. Now he goes on to talk about what autism can teach you. "I began to realize that what seems easier may not be right.
Sometimes, in the world of autism, it's just the right thing to take the tomatoes out of the salad when it's ready, rather than not putting them in at all." Selner writes with an irony and exaggeration all his own, not drowning his stories in pathos, yet he doesn't make light of living with autism and acknowledges its weight. Sometimes wine and Jesenka in action can cure it, but the main thing is not to close your eyes to otherness and not to be afraid to ask for help.
This late harvest follows the previous Autism & Chardonnay at its best.
