On 20 May we will be joined by journalist and broadcaster John Harris to discuss his memoir Maybe I’m Amazed. In his deeply personal memoir, John reflects on raising his autistic son James, and how music has opened up the world to him, one song at a time 🎼❤️ Obsessed with music since childhood, John had no idea he was preparing for the greatest challenge of his life. When James was diagnosed with autism at the age of three, music became a source of precious connection. Maybe I’m Amazed explores how music became an essential part of James’s world, and uncovers a hidden history of neurodivergence and creativity, casting new light on why music speaks so powerfully to the human mind.
