"The Horse Boy is a wonderful book that encourages families affected by autism to
dare to dream of a better quality of life, even when things seem hopeless. We are
thrilled to be working with Rupert and Little, Brown to help raise awareness of autism
through this family's story, and we hope it will inspire other families to find their
own children's unique paths to happiness."
(Lee Grossman, Autism Society of America President and CEO)
"Rupert Isaacson has conjured a non-fiction journey that reads like an epic novel.
It is a book of endless amazements. The world of Mongolian shamans, the details of
adventuresome travel, the mysterious world of autism--all are all amazing. Soon,
you realize that the world of horses is mysterious, too--and, yes, amazing. By the
time you are in the grip of this book, you'll see love, marriage, and parenthood
as a realm of magic, profound power, and further amazements. The Horse Boy can change
the way you see your life, and it's a terrifically good read at the same time. It
feels like a classic."
(Luis Alberto Urrea, author of The Hummingbird's Daughter and The Devil's Highway)
Moving Pictures Magazine - "...an affirmation that it is only by indulging in other
cultures that we can even begin to question ours - and that, in the end, if we can't
begin to accept and love those in our lives for who they are and how they're great,
then our eyes will never fully be open and suffering never truly be eased."
Entertainment Weekly - "...a lyrical, heartbreaking, and deeply stirring meditation
on the mystery of autism"
Hammer to Nail - "To say that this nonfiction film surpasses your average "case study
of an affliction" flick would be a gross understatement, for it is both a thrillingly
cinematic and rollicking adventure story, as well as an intimate journey into a family's
most private and tormented moments."
An exploration - part travel writing, part personal quest - of Africa's oldest and
most famous population. The Bushmen have long been mythologized and are firmly entrenched
in the Western mind. But what is it about hunter-gatherers that is so attractive
us, and why do we need these myths? Fascinated by this disappearing population, Rupert
Isaacson has been venturing into the Kalahari since he was a child and his book is
a search for this truth about the Bushmen through Namibia, Botswana and South Africa.
Part travel writing, part history of the Bushmen, part personal quest, the work records
what he found there, the landscapes he travelled through, the wildlife he hunted
and ate, the characters, corruption and confusion of a people who have wrenched themselves
out of the Stone Age (it wasn't until 1948 that it became illegal to kill Bushmen)
into a cash economy over the last decade of the 20th century.
