A Boy Made of Blocks (Broché)

Biographie de Keith Stuart

In 2012, one of Keith Stuart's two sons was diagnosed on the autism spectrum. The ramifications felt huge. But then Keith and both boys started playing video games together — especially Minecraft. Keith had always played games and, since 1995, has been writing about them, first for specialist magazines like Edge and PC Gamer, then for the last ten years as games editor for the Guardian. The powerful creative sharing as a family and the blossoming of communication that followed informed his debut novel, A Boy Made of Blocks : a story about a dad who wants to communicate with his autistic son ; a dad who has forgotten how to play.
It is a story about letting go, about being a kid — which is how Keith learned about everything important in his life, starting with his son.
