Turing Machinists

At seventeen, Del’s world seems to be falling apart. He’s managed his Asperger’s well, has a solid group of friends in his special needs class at school, and even manages to get by among people who don’t understand his brand of communication. But his parents are splitting up, and Del is certain he can save his family. To do it, he decides he needs to live out his father’s dream of musical stardom. He gets together with some of his friends and they form The Turing Machinists, an all-Asperger’s rock band. But they’ll need help – and Del seeks that help in the form of his neighbour, a reclusive rock legend who would rather have nothing to do with the music scene.

Değerlendirmeler

“The Turing Machinists is a revolutionary novel. Very few books attempt to tackle the struggles that come with having Asperger’s syndrome. Even fewer books portray the disorder accurately. The Turing Machinists accomplishes both of these tasks, and it provides a humorous and entertaining plot while depicting very serious topics.”
