This was beautiful and eerie. Oliver de la Paz wrestles to understand the internal processing of his two autistic children through a poetic retelling of Theseus and the Minotaur. While these poems are gorgeous and descriptive and full of ambience, my favorites tended to be the brief excerpts from the Autism Screening Questionnaire and his responses, which rang most true to my own experiences. An amazing collection
