Empire Building - BOOK CLUB # 10

The Remarkable Real-Life Story of Star Wars by Garry Jenkins

Matt Lowry, LPP, gives his co-host Angela a brief info-dump on why he loves the book “Empire Building: The Remarkable Real-Life Story of Star Wars.”

“‘Why couldn't you do things more normal?’ And then all of a sudden, the world changes to fit his vision.”

“And it shows that, there is a person who is very, very much like me who was able to not just survive, but succeed, in a world that is very, very frustrating and very, very difficult to navigate at times—especially if you don't have that innate code for socialization with neurotypicals.”

“As he quietly mumbled, she could articulate for him and be his person to translate from Autistic mumbling into Allistic music.”
