Imagine hearing the words of a song but not feeling the passion that lies within. Imagine living for years with someone in need and not being able to sense their sadness. Imagine your world turned upside down... Like so many others, John Elder Robison was born with Asperger's. Over the years, he misread others' emotions or missed them altogether.
