This moving book has been created from the ashes of a much-mourned lost relationship in the hope that it may help other similar couples to stay together. Juliet Walke writes from the heart in a painfully frank, and often wryly funny, account of a marriage that she feels was wrecked largely because the love of her life was never diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, which she is now pretty certain he has. “It was only during the last year or so of our shared life that it began to dawn on me that it could explain a lot about the way he lived his life,” she explains. “I wish I’d understood, through the years, what it was that contributed to the way he was. I might then have responded differently and we might still be happily together.”
