T K Torme is on the Autism scale with Asperger’s Syndrome. “Silent Meow” is a poetry collection written openly and honestly through the mediums of memoir and insight. It gives the reader an in-depth glimpse into the feelings and emotions experienced by a person with a disability trying to navigate their way through a world of people without special needs. It is difficult for people on the Autism spectrum, whether high functioning of not, to wend their way through this world’s intricacies and nuances and find meaningful relationships. T K was born in Montreal and now resides in Vancouver BC.
