Songs of the Gorilla Nation: My Journey Through Autism is by Dawn Prince-Hughes, Ph.D, an inspiring woman who overcome the solitude of undiagnosed Asperger's by studying and connecting with gorillas. Her memoir recalls childhood years of pervasive fear and chaos, and a confusing youth clouded by drugs and exotic dancing. Dawn finally finds her identity as a successful anthropologist, working with primates who, like her, are "captive animals who don't speak the language, look the looks, move in the right ways."
