In Someone Like Me, editors Clem Bastow and Jo Case showcase the wide-ranging experiences of Autistic gender-diverse and women writers – and explode long-held stereotypes.

BIPOC and white gender minorities with Autism have existed on the fringes of mainstream media for too long, rarely seeing representations of their unique experiences, hardships and triumphs.

Delving into topics like sex, living room dance parties, the natural world, eating disorders, religion and all-encompassing passions, Someone Like Me brings together an eclectic mix of forms and voices that expand the cultural definition of the Autistic experience.

Featuring contributions from authors from Australia and beyond – including Lucy Rose, author of The Lamb, and Naoise Dolan, author of Exciting Times – this groundbreaking anthology invites Autistic people of all kinds to find company in these pages, and maybe even see themselves too.
