Growing up, Dr Camilla Pang loved patterns and ordering things. She was obsessed with Disney, infatuated by Stephen Hawking and the language she only really understood was science. Diagnosed with autism age eight, Camilla felt like an outsider - and kids often like nothing better than to gang up on outsiders. This is the story of how Camilla used science as her sidekick for navigating the world - allowing her to translate ideas she could understand (like gravity and light waves) onto things she couldn't (like people, how long to smile for and when someone needed a hug).

Zur Antwort betrachtet Ann-Kristin Tlusty wie durch ein Brennglas die Zwänge, die das Leben von Frauen auch heute prägen: Noch immer wird ihnen abverlangt, sanft die Sorgen und Bedürfnisse der Gesellschaft aufzufangen.

Albe ist frei, und Lou sitzt noch ein Jahr im Knast. Ein von Albe mit Geld bestochener Anwalt hat ihre Texte rausgeschmuggelt, jetzt will sie sie abholen, um endlich Autorin zu werden.

Die französische Schriftstellerin Albertine Sarrazin (1937-1967) hat mehrheitlich über ihre Adoptiveltern, über das Leben und über sich selbst geschrieben.
