Über diesen Titel

Brought to you by Penguin.

I have always been weird. Not in a mysterious, sexy way. More like a ‘Where’s her carer?’ kind of way.

Like any new parent, when Lisa Lloyd became a mum, her own needs were put at the bottom of a very long list. But for Lisa, adapting to life with kids was an uphill struggle – one with frequent meltdowns, from her as well as them. When both her children were diagnosed with autism, it all started to add up. Her behaviours growing up, the jobs she couldn’t keep, ALL the emotions … maybe there was a reason for it all.

In Unmasking Mum, Lisa draws on her story of being diagnosed with autism at age 41 to shine a light on the highs and lows of parenting when you’re neurodivergent and offer helpful tips she's learnt along the way. From the sensory overload of life with kids, to their terrible sense of personal space and the imposter syndrome that rears its ugly head when other people’s children are just perfect – with humour and honesty, Lisa is pulling off the mask, for every parent who feels they too are 'weird'. The mask is stuck quite hard, but bit-by-bit, it’s peeling away, revealing a Lisa who has been hiding all along.

Kritikerstimmen

Honest, funny and full of heart, Unmasking Mum will make so many parents feel seen and less alone. (James Hunt)
Lisa has an unmatched knack for capturing, with honesty and humour, the complexities of neurodivergence and motherhood. Heartfelt, comforting and utterly absorbing, this deeply relatable book had me laughing through tears. It has made me, and so many others, feel truly seen. (Camilla Thurlow)
In Unmasking Mum, Lisa cleverly turns awkward situations into memorable laugh-out-loud moments, and beneath the humour is a powerful emotional core. Lisa handles topics like motherhood, neurodivergence and social isolation with sensitivity and authenticity. Candid, funny and deeply relatable, Lisa’s unfiltered storytelling and insightful reflections, particularly around embracing difference, make this comforting and impactful for readers who enjoy authentic, no-nonsense memoirs.
