Lenses

By Katie Mitchell

In post-conflict Northern Ireland, beliefs around masculinity, sexuality, and disability are culturally engrained. Jack, a university student with autism studying photography at Queen's University, finds himself caught up in the entanglement of all of these themes, trying to navigate his first year away from home, his chosen career, and the social ups and downs of university life. He forms relationships with Professor Callaghan, a photography instructor with his own insecurities, Gareth, a kid from the other side of the city who's more than a little rough around the edges, and Matt, perhaps the only person who truly understands what being different feels like. This is a story about understanding, about friendship, and about a society still dealing with the repercussions of The Troubles. It was also a book written for autism and autism-advocating communities everywhere: the world belongs to you.
