Produktbeschreibung

The Glass Monolith is the powerful memoir of Jon K. Evans, a man who spent much of his life struggling to understand why he felt different-until he was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome in adulthood.

Through vivid storytelling and unflinching honesty, Evans takes readers on a journey through the challenges of growing up misunderstood, navigating college and career obstacles, and facing isolation in a world that often seemed impenetrable. His metaphor of the "glass monolith"-a barrier that separates him from the neurotypical world-captures the profound sense of disconnection that many on the autism spectrum experience.

Yet, this is not only a story of struggle. It is also one of resilience, perseverance, and ultimate self-discovery. Evans shares personal anecdotes, reflections on interpersonal relationships, and insights into systemic barriers, while also touching on the intersection of race and neurodiversity in America.

For readers seeking a deeper understanding of autism, or for anyone who has ever felt cut off from society, The Glass Monolith offers both validation and hope.

A compelling narrative of survival, identity, and advocacy, this book speaks to individuals, families, educators, and policymakers alike reminding us that true connection begins with empathy and understanding.
