Inhaltsangabe

“It’s never just a sandwich.”

With those words, Emma Dalmayne invites readers into the raw, lyrical, and deeply human world of Autistic experience. In this groundbreaking collection, Emma, an Autistic writer, mother, and activist, weaves together poetry, reflection, and lived truth to show what it really means to be Autistic in a world that too often misunderstands us.

From the overwhelm of sensory overload to the quiet power of self-acceptance, these pages pulse with honesty and empathy. Each chapter is both testimony and teaching: exploring the realities of meltdowns, the politics of eye contact, the trauma of behavioural “therapies”, the impact of domestic violence, and the fierce love of parenting Autistic children.

Emma writes with a rhythm that mirrors the Autistic mind; vivid, looping, and alive. Her words do not ask for pity or permission. They demand understanding, justice, and respect.

This book is not a clinical manual. It’s a call to conscience. It asks readers, parents, professionals, and Autistic people alike, to listen, to unlearn, and to see the world through a different lens.

With a foreword by Autistic author and advocate David Gray-Hammond, this collection stands as both literature and manifesto; an essential work for anyone seeking to understand neurodivergence beyond diagnosis.

Emma Dalmayne has been a leading voice in the fight against “cure” culture and pseudoscientific abuse, working tirelessly to protect Autistic children and young people from harm. Her writing, activism, and advocacy have changed the conversation around autism, bringing compassion and truth where once there was stigma and silence.
