Neurodiversity in Autobiography and Novel

This book was born out of a deep curiosity about how different people perceive the world and how perception is influenced by both fictional and non-fictional narratives. Representation is particularly vital for neurodivergent individuals because it influences identity and can perpetuate longstanding stereotypes if misused. When discussing neurodiversity, authors must be particularly careful when creating neurodivergent characters, as each character builds on existing ideas and influences our understanding of the world. This book explores neurodivergent experiences through personal reflections, observations, and fictional stories, highlighting the power of narratives in shaping perception and illustrating that meaning in life is never fixed but constantly changing.
