Love Anthony by Lisa Genova
From neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author of Still Alice, a "beautifully written and poignant" (USA TODAY) novel about autism, friendship, and unconditional love.In an insightful, deeply human story reminiscent of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Daniel Isn't Talking, and The Reason I Jump, Lisa Genova offers a unique perspective in fiction--the extraordinary voice of Anthony, a nonverbal boy with autism.
Anthony reveals a neurologically plausible peek inside the mind of autism, why he hates pronouns, why he loves swinging and the number three, how he experiences routine, joy, and love. In this powerfully unforgettable story, Anthony teaches two women about the power of friendship and helps them to discover the universal truths that connect us all.
Lisa Genova, PhD, obtained her bachelor's degree in biopsychology from Bates College and her master's degree in neuroscience from Harvard University. Genova has carved out a unique niche in contemporary fiction by penning novels that are influenced by both neurology and the human soul. Still Alice, Left Neglected, Loving Anthony, and Within the O'Briens are among her New York Times bestselling novels.
