We Live On The Same Road (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780979716997)

AUTISM Hector Chang was imprisoned in his mind for over 40 years with Autism. He didn't perceive the world the same way as 'regular' people did. He didn't have the same abilities as normal people. He was cursed by a society into the sometimes brutal hopelessness in an inept system, Hector finally moved to Ferris House with five other people who also possessed various disabling afflictions. This was where he met Chico, the first genuine friend Hector ever had. But the brutalization didn't stop just because they lived outside of the institution. The bigotry hounded them even in their own home. The triumphs and tragedies that befall these six individuals culminate in a horrifyingly vile lesson as they simply try to live a normal life in a rural neighborhood. The cruelties that plague Hector and his new extended family continue until Hector can stand it no more. Little did anyone know Hector's hidden talents would surface to extend havoc and justice to an unjust world.
