I have permission from publisher ****cupine's Quill to distribute an
excerpt from the new coming-of-age novel, BORDERLINE, which explores
the epidemic of autism in a humorous, scientific, and ultimately
personal way.
BORDERLINE uses the story of 12-year-old Everyman, Guy Ritter, his
activist Mom, detached scientist Dad, and autistic brother, Austin, to
reflect on a world with no wilderness, to slam fast food franchises,
and to introduce JX-104: a wolf bred to be tame but who can’t quite
make the transition to dog.
BORDERLINE, leavened with humor and filled with compassion, will be
welcome by families who've been touched by the autism spectrum.
Environmentalists will also appreciate both humor and message in this
story of two teens learning to become men too soon.
The excerpt I am distributing offers a great scene where the Ritter
family first discovers that Austin's development might be more advanced
than they realized. For anyone who has raised an autistic child,
BORDERLINE will evoke laughter, tears and nods of acknowledgement long
after closing Bonnie Rozanski’s book.
The excerpt from BORDERLINE is available at the following URL -- or
email me and I will send it as a text file:
