Talk of the Stacks with John Robison
Robison is the New York Times bestselling author of Be Different and Look Me in the Eye, colorful and heartfelt memoirs about unknowingly growing up with Asperger’s syndrome and finally emerging as a fully realized adult. He is the elder brother of memoirist Augusten Burroughs, and has appeared in People, USA Today, Entertainment Weekly, Washington Post, Boston Globe and elsewhere. Raising Cubby, his newest book, is an unforgettable and hilarious chronicle about a different kind of boy being raised by a different kind of father and coming to terms with being “on the autism spectrum.”
