Bøker av Charlotte Amelia Poe

Poe''s voice is confident, moving and often funny, as they reveal to us a very personal account of autism, mental illness, gender and sexual identity. Charlotte witnesses their own behaviour with a wry humour as they sympathises with those who care for them, yet all the while challenging the neurotypical narratives of autism as something to be ''fixed''. Punctuated by their poetry, this is an exuberant, inspiring, life-changing insight into autism from a viewpoint almost entirely missing from public discussion.

A clarion call for all autistic readers from award winning author Charlotte Amelia Poe, Notes from the End of the World is an honest and unbending exploration into the autistic experience of trauma and grief.

Sent to live in the small seaside town of Lowestoft by his mother, Theo sits, grumpy and alone in a small cafe, glaring at his coffee. A world away from his life in New York, at least his demons can't reach him there. Enter stage left: Felix. A boy with no sense of self-preservation and a kindness that can't be beaten down, he spies the grumpy boy sitting by himself and wonders, what's he so angry about? A tale of the noise and bustle, the still and silence, running so fast you might not be able to stop, and finally, finally, coming up for air.
