Postmodern Literature is Autisic? Hmm

From Alex Sobel at Electric Lit:

Postmodern Literature Is the Best Expression of What It’s Like to Be Autistic

He eloquently expresses the "beads off their string" character of autistic memory and experience, and I've lived that.

Every time I read something about the autism spectrum and spectrum behavior, I see things that are like me... and things that aren't. I think back to things I said and did and thought when I was much younger, and some of them seem spectrum-like... and some of them don't.

I've about concluded that either I'm on the spectrum but at the very low end of it, or I was one of the lucky ones who learned to compensate as I got older, and so really don't fit that description any more.
