About half way through I could see the link between the first two novels of the trilogy & the final novel & was beginning to enjoy the novel. The theme of death & loss percolated throughout the final novel. However it finished on a note of Hope & acceptance.

“It seemed that other people’s “normality” was the road to my insanity”
Tony Attwood, The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome

Tony Attwood
“We can also express it like this: the difficulties, which this boy has with himself as well as with his relationship to the world, are the price he has to pay for his special gifts. (Asperger 1938, p.2)”
Tony Attwood, The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome

A.J.P. Taylor
“In retrospect, though many were guilty, none was innocent.”
A.J.P. Taylor, The Origins of the Second World War

Tony Attwood
“When the anger is intense, the person with Asperger's syndrome may be in a 'blind rage' and unable to see the signals indicating that it would be appropriate to stop. Feelings of anger can also be in response in situations where we would expect other emotions. I have noted that sadness may be expressed as anger.”
Tony Attwood

Walter Benjamin
“A man listening to a story is in the company of the storyteller; even a man reading one shares this companionship. The reader of a novel, however, is isolated, more so than any other reader(For even the reader of a poem is ready to utter the words, for the benefit of the listener.) In this solitude of his, the reader of
a novel seizes upon his material more jealously than anyone else. He is ready to make it completely his own, to devour it, as it were. Indeed, he destroys, he swallows up the material as the fire devours logs in the fireplace. The suspense which permeates the novel is
very much like the draft which stimulates the flame in the fireplace and enlivens its play.”
Walter Benjamin, Illuminations: Essays and Reflections
