A life-affirming and perspective-shifting memoir of one woman's
walk in the wilds as she comes to terms with an Asperger's
diagnosis. In August 2015, Katherine May set out to walk the
630-mile South West Coast Path. She wanted to understand why she
had stopped coping with everyday life; why motherhood had been so
overwhelming and isolating, and why the world felt full of
inundation and expectations she can't meet. Setting her feet down
on the rugged and difficult path by the sea, the answer begins to
unfold. It's a chance encounter with a voice on the radio that
sparks a realisation that she has Asperger's Syndrome. The
Electricity of Every Living Thing tells the story of the year in
which Katherine comes to terms with her diagnosis. It leads to a
re-evaluation of her life so far - a kinder one, which finally
allows her to be different rather than simply awkward, arrogant or
unfeeling. The physical and psychological journeys become
inextricably entwined, and as Katherine finds her way across the
untameable coast, she also finds the way to herself. This book is a
life-affirming exploration of wild landscapes, what it means to be
different and, above all, how we can all learn to make peace within
our own unquiet minds.
