Description
On this elegant and thought-provoking memoir, Morning time Prince-Hughes traces her personal growth from undiagnosed autism to the moment, as a young woman, when she entered the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle and became instantly eager about the gorillas. By observing them and, later, working with them, Prince-Hughes was once in any case in a position to emerge from her solitude and connect to living beings in a way she had never prior to now experienced.
More than a story of autism, Songs of the Gorilla Nation is a poignant, beautifully written exploration of the wealthy landscape of human emotion and the ways we learn how to love.
