- Summary:
- "Diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome as a teenager, Adam, now a 26-year-old freelance designer, attends his first meeting at a social support group. Here he meets Anna, a charity worker with a face hemangioma; Marta, a TV anchor with alopecia; and Eva, a make up artist with vitiligo. The following week he moves in with them. Shaped after the writer's own experience of living with Tourette's syndrome, Adam tries to move from self-inflicted invisibility to being visible -- in his family, career, and personal life"-- Provided by publisher.
