Love anthony - lisa genova

Olivias dream of a normal life shattered when her son was diagnosed with autism at age three.

But just as Olivia was starting to realize that happiness and autism could coexist, he died.

Now shes alone in a cottage on Nantucket, separated from her husband, desperate to understand the meaning of her sons short life.

From neuroscientist and bestselling author of Still Alice, a moving novel about autism, friendship, and unconditional love.

In an insightful, deeply human story reminiscent of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Daniel Isnt Talking, and The Reason I Jump, Lisa Genova offers a unique perspective in fiction--the extraordinary voice of Anthony, a nonverbal boy with autism.

Anthony reveals a neurologically plausible peek inside the mind of autism, why he hates pronouns, why he loves swinging and the number three, how he experiences routine, joy, and love.

In this powerfully unforgettable story, Anthony teaches two women about the power of friendship and helps them to discover the universal truths that connect us all.
