Acerca de este título
Up All Night not only grips listeners in unrelenting humor, but it offers a fresh voice embracing listeners with graphic injuries, tender recollections, big surprises, and love. Posing nuanced psychological questions while never losing its heart, Up All Night traces the challenges of living with undiagnosed Asperger's syndrome before the social disorder became known in 1992.
Almost every chapter is hysterical. Some are poignant. The tale also offers a warning to young people who recently suffered the loss of a first love—or who may face that future trauma.
With a modest yet entertaining, action-packed style enhanced by an Aspie's acute long-term memory, Trout delves into vivid, cringe-worthy, and demoralizing episodes. Anyone with fond memories of the years from grade school to college and adulthood will rejoice. Trout's move to Hobbs, New Mexico, or Opposite Land, nicknamed for its stark differences from Chicago, becomes his springboard to social skills, empathy, and fatherhood. Up All Night circles back to sixth grade in the final chapters when Trout confronts a lingering boogeyman.

"The story of a young man maneuvering through the many stages of development while saddled with the complication of Asperger's syndrome, was like riding the coattails of a southeast New Mexico dust devil. Never knowing the direction each chapter would take, the reader anxiously anticipates the next amazing experience seen through the eyes of the author." —Gay Kernan, former New Mexico State Senator
