Life, Animated by Ron Suskind

Imagine being trapped inside a Disney movie and having to learn about life through animated characters dancing acrosss a screen of colour. This is the real-life story of Owen Suskind, the son of Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ron Suskind. An autistic boy who couldn't speak for years, Owen memorised dozens of Disney movies and turned them into a language to express love and loss, kinship and brotherhood. Life, Animated captures the intimate realities of life in a household with autism.

Ron Suskind is the author of four New York Times best-sellers, including A Hope in the Unseen: An American Odyssey from the Back Alley to the Ivy League, which received critical acclaim. Confidence Men, The Way of the World, The One Percent Doctrine, and The Price of Loyalty are among his other works. He won the Pulitzer Prize for his work as a senior national affairs writer for The Wall Street Journal, and he is now a Senior Fellow at Harvard's Center for Ethics. He and his wife, Cornelia Kennedy, live in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
