Uncommon Sense: An Autistic Memoir

Adam Mardero Latitude 46 Publishing

This memoir begins with the moment that Adam Mardero is diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome at the age of nine. Growing up with this diagnosis impacts virtually everything that follows. For years, Adam has been working against widespread misunderstandings about the autism spectrum. Marrero writes with an incredible closeness, the kind of vulnerability that makes you feel as if you are on this life journey with him. It’s a privilege to bear witness to a voice finding its place and a talented man finding his voice as an activist for neurodivergent youth.
