When I discovered this book as a teen (on recommendation from another friend on the spectrum), we were all certain Douglas Adams must be One of Us. It’s so off the wall and creative, full of observations of odd human behavior much like the observations that those of us on the spectrum tend to make. It’s like you can feel how he’s been “on the outside, looking in” the same way many of us have felt throughout our lives.
Not that any of us can claim Douglas Adams was on the spectrum for certain, but his relatable perspective certainly shined through in his writing.
Yes! Yes to all of that!
