Conversations with Monsters

On mortality, creativity and neurodivergent survival

Jessica Kingsley Publishers

How does autistic trauma really feel, and how can you find your way through it to a warmer, brighter place?

Written by best-selling author Charlotte Amelia Poe this is a poignant and whimsical exploration of the true autistic experience. Chapter-by-chapter, Poe delicately peels back the layers of what it is to be young and autistic in the modern world, touching on trauma, grief, mortality, love and everything in between.

Charming, thought-provoking and often very funny, this book doesn't offer solutions - it walks next to you, like a friend, through times both dark and light. It reminds you every step that you're not alone.
