去年夏天，凯瑟琳·梅（Katherine May）快40岁了，她为母亲的身份感到不知所措，缺乏与他人的联系，迷失在一个充满洪水和期待的世界里。她一直感觉不一样，但这种感觉是新的。她想走出去，获得自由，重新找回自我——于是开始沿着西南海岸450英里崎岖不平的小路行走。然而，这次旅行发现了比她想象的更多的东西。
一次偶然的机会，在去散步的路上，凯瑟琳听到了一个广播节目，客人们正在谈论阿斯伯格综合症。事情开始有了眉目——这能解释为什么会出现白斑、围绕社会交往的极度混乱，以及每一种生物的电感觉吗？经过正式诊断后，凯瑟琳开始对自己的生活有了新的认识。在她的身体旅程中，她感受到了一种情感——接受自己并向前迈进。这不仅仅是散步或阿斯伯格综合症；这是一个女人在自己内心感到自由的旅程，每个人都可以与之相关。
The Electricity of Every Living Thing: A Woman’s Walk in the Wild to Find Her Way Home (Audiobook)
Last summer, Katherine May was approaching 40, feeling overwhelmed by motherhood and lacking connection with others, lost in a world of inundation and expectation. She had always felt different, but this feeling was new. She wanted to get out, get free and find herself again – and so set about walking the rugged 450-mile South West Coast Path. However, this journey uncovered more than she had ever imagined.
By chance, en route to the walk, Katherine heard a radio show, and the guests were speaking about Asperger’s syndrome. Things began to fall into place – could this explain the whiteouts, the excruciating confusion around social contact, the electric feeling of every living thing? After a formal diagnosis, Katherine began to unravel this new perspective of her life. Through her physical journey came an emotional one – of accepting who she is and moving forward. It’s not just about walking or Asperger’s; this is one woman’s journey to feel free within herself, something that everyone can relate to.
