"Fred Holly, the oldest of four children, begins his senior year in high school while he works part-time at the local Omaha art museum, a place where he can get lost for hours in the beauty before him. At the museum, Fred escapes his father's worries about the Vietnam War, the draft, and the changes that are roiling America. As fall progresses, James Day, Fred's best friend, begins spending most of his time with his male debate coach and Fred can't help but feel the strange pangs of jealousy. Soon thereafter, Charlotte, Fred's precocious eleven-year-old sister, is admitted to the hospital with kidney problems. As Charlotte's condition worsens and the likelihood of her coming home decreases, the Hollys lives descend into sadness. And only their dreams can hope to inspire their days."--BOOK JACKET.

A time-travel story that is both a poignant exploration of human identity and an absorbing tale of suspense. It’s natural to feel a little out of place when you’re the new girl, but when Charlotte Makepeace wakes up after her first night at boarding school, she’s baffled: everyone thinks she’s a girl called Clare Mobley, and even more shockingly, it seems she has traveled forty years back in time to 1918. In the months to follow, Charlotte wakes alternately in her own time and in Clare’s. And instead of having only one new set of rules to learn, she also has to contend with the unprecedented strangeness of being an entirely new person in an era she knows nothing about. Her teachers think she’s slow, the other girls find her odd, and, as she spends more and more time in 1918, Charlotte starts to wonder if she remembers how to be Charlotte at all. If she doesn’t figure out some way to get back to the world she knows before the end of the term, she might never have another chance.

An urgent, funny, shocking, and impassioned memoir by the winner of the Spectrum Art Prize 2018, How To Be Autistic presents the rarely shown point of view of someone living with autism. Poe's voice is confident, moving and often funny, as she reveals to us a very personal account of autism, mental illness, gender and sexual identity. As we follow Charlotte's journey through school and college, we become as awestruck by her extraordinary passion for life as by the enormous privations that she must undergo to live it. From food and fandom, to body modification and comic conventions, Charlotte's experiences through the torments of schooldays and young adulthood leave us with a riot of conflicting emotions: horror, empathy, despair, laugh-out-loud amusement and, most of all, respect.
