Title: The rich variety of the human condition
Review: which sounds so pompous. But Elizabeth Moon's characters grow and feel, and we feel their pain nd hope and uncertaintry, too. Most writing uses cardboard cut-outs for characters, a few use real people, recognizably unique, and a very few use unique and convincing characters with ideas that make us question what we thought we knew. This book is one of the last. Many of us have sensory issues or social skills issues; we try desperately to pass for "normal" because our past teachers (universally from the opposite end of the skills/interests spectrum) told us that we must, that we were wrong to do otherwise. This book says "What is normal? Why ? Who decides?"Changed the whole way I thought about myself and family.
