That understanding transformed the way he saw himself--and the world. A born storyteller, Robison has written a moving, darkly funny memoir about a life that has taken him from developing exploding guitars for KISS to building a family of his own. It's a strange, sly, indelible account--sometimes alien yet always deeply human.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Elder Robison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0307396185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780307396181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crown Publishing Group (NY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.93h x 5.18w x 0.71d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeople Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/22\/2008 pg. 63","brand":"John Elder Robison","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44053729739007,"sku":"9780307396181","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b51f965-c863-4790-ab20-13bb1e6f33cf.jpg?v=1685025938","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/look-me-in-the-eye-john-elder-robison-9780307396181","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
