En savoir plus sur le livre
At forty years of age, Abel Abelson discovers that he is intellectually gifted. Suddenly his eternal "otherness" is no longer a flaw. It is being called an asset, a plus, a gift ... But is it really? In the light of this discovery Abel revisits his past, unravels the present and reconstructs a future. Being intellectually gifted is just the tip of the iceberg. True meaning turns out to be hiding somewhere else, far beyond the "giftedness" concept. Open, direct and compelling - Abel's diary speaks of love, failed over and over again, but finally won; of emancipation in a confused and confusing world; of emotions, profound and overwhelming; of ideas, old and new; of feeling different; of being lost, then found. Meet Abel: man, simian, human being, lover, hater, son, father, husband, hermit, child, adult, loser, finder. Above all: someone like you. Or not.
